Title: Barta Arrows
Post by: buckeyebowhunter on November 22, 2007, 07:12:00 PM
I saw that somebody had a post on here about the Barta arrows, and I myself was thinkin about gettin some. But when I go to three rivers it doesnt say what diameter they are does anyone know what diameter they are? Or does it ask you what diameter you want before you order them?

I would say don't spend $80 on a set of shafts that have been stained and fletched.

Same shafts that 3-rivers makes those arrows from- $28.99
Nice oil based stains- $8.50
Exact same fletching as on those arras- about $18.00
that comes out to $55.49  

A Lot cheaper than buying those. And another reason what I wouldn't get those is because they aren't even weight-matched.

Unless your shooting a real heavy spine i would say 11/32. That is the dia. of the ones that i have, there spined 50-55. I have had good luck with the ones i bought there pretty tough and they fly well. There are other options that you could purchase from thee rivers but the Barta arrows are not bad.

My longbows poundage is 60 and I'll be shooting 125gr. broadheads. Some of the guys on here said I should get them spined at 70-75#. Would this change the diameter any?

There other arrows at that spine are 23/64 I would think the barta are the same.
