Title: Northern Barefoot carbon shafts
Post by: WVbowhunter on March 08, 2020, 01:08:52 PM

Hey y'all, I've been eyeballing the Northern Barefoot shafts sold by 3rivers for a while now and was wondering if anyone on here has tried them.
I can't find much online about them and would like to hear some opinions before I buy them.

I bought six 500s, and they are awesome. I am actually shooting the Yumi 400s by Three rivers and like them a lot. They are just slightly thicker then the Barefoots, but also very skinny. The 500 Barefoots are very skinny. The problem with the skinnies are the aluminum inserts. I replaced the yumi inserts with black eagle instinct FOCOS 350. These inserts are an al insert and steal outsert that weigh 100gr. makes a bomber arrow. I think Victory arrows have an insert outsert that would work for the Barefoots. that is my plan with the Barefoot shafts! the reason I have different spine for the two arrows is because I plan to shoot different point weights out of the same bow and similar arrow length.

Thanks for the reply man, I think the day six components also fit the Northern shafts if what I've heard is correct
