    Hey guys, I've tried searching, but maybe it just isn't working right on my phone because I know there are a bunch of threads like this.

    Anyhow, I'm in the market for some new arrows this year. I'm shooting 60# 30" draw with 100g tips. I have been shooting Gold Tip XT Hunters, but is there something else out there I should look at? I have been looking at GT, CX, and Easton arrows.

    If someone could explain the benefits in having a straighter or heavier gr/in that'd be great. I know the heavier the more kinetic energy, but if someone could give me a little more in depth that'd be great.

    the heavier they are the more momentum making them harder to stop.

    I have been shooting gt pro hunters this year and they are great arrows but just recently I was told they are not made in the US anymore so I have been looking into the Easton arrows. They shoot great and best part is they are American!
