Hey y’all I want to change up my arrows now that I’ve got my weight up a little bit. Currently at 40lbs, aiming for 50-55lbs before hunting next year. Would like to be consistent at at least 50/60 yds 23.5” draw length. Tl;dr : need new arrows, currently comparing Easton axis spt, victory rip, and scheels vendetta pros I know they are pretty basic but I’ve been shooting Scheels Vendettas and really liked them. But I’ve handed them down to my kid, so am exploring other options. I do have 500 Gold Tips, with 75gr, but I am having a hell of a time getting consistency with them, experiencing a lot of drop at 20yds, and just not a fan. I’m looking at Easton Axis SPT 500 or 600 since they are specifically made for tiny arms but I also like the Victory RIP open to other suggestions, or should I stick with the vendettas I’m comfortable with?
Gold Tips with 75gr inserts or 75gr heads? My wife shoots 45# at same DL; she shoots Victory 'BuckBuster' 500s (BuckBusters are Sportsman's Guide signature arrows by Victory) with 100gr heads (standard inserts so maybe 12gr) and they shoot great. She actually shoots tighter groups than I do out to 20 yards. I have shot Victory RIP 250s and they are great arrows- but I am shooting 31" shafts at 70# so the performance is pretty noticeable compared to a standard shaft 350 spine.
75gr field tips I have never heard of them but will definitely check them out. I think victory makes the vendettas too. Thank you!
Thanks! Happy to be here. The boyfriend is on her a couple times a day, so figured it was good place to ask
Try 100gr heads. Promise you get more consistent and tighter groups. I'm guessing the Vendettas are the same as the BuckBusters. Both are just the store branded version of the Victory shafts.
My son is shooting Gold Tip Hunters. 500. He shoots 100 gr heads and pulls 46lbs. He can shoot to 20 yds with one pin without adjusting. hope that helps. oh and his arrows weigh 325 gr
