If you have not heard, Gold Tip has a new Traditional woodgrain shaft coming, it is a .600 spine weight and about 8.3 gr/inch.
They named it the 1535.
Finally, a nice shaft for us light bow guys.
I havn't heard, do you think it's one of the Ultra's? Since they are the only ones in 600.
They are not on GT's website yet.
That made MY ears prick up. :saywhat:

I had seen those in 3Rivers new catalog.
I do not believe these are the ones in 3Rivers.
I believe the 3Rivers shaft is made by Easton.
Some of us have been asking Gold Tip for a shaft like this for some time, they listened!
show me ....show me ...show me...where where where!...what length?
They are to be 30.5" from the throat of the nock. Some dealers may have them in a week or two.
THANK YOU!!!!
DIAMETER??
I'll have to call Gold Tip on Monday and get a few dozen.
.246 inside diameter, outside I think is the same as all others.
cant wait to try them!
Thanks for the info John, is that the same inside as the others too? I sure hope we can use standard components.
Looking forward to hearing more about them!
Would these arrows work for 35#-45# bows?
Thanks
David
35-45 should be ok. I suggest you do not cut them short until you bare shaft tune.
The components should all be the same.
We have tuned a lot of the Entrada 600s and they work very well in bows in the low 40s.
One thing to keep in mind is that these 1535s will be heavier than the Entrada 600 so they will shoot slower, thus stiffer.
We are continuing our business as a Distributor for Gold Tip and will be distributing these shafts to dealers. I will be happy to provide a list of dealers who I know have them if you email srta@sonet.net.
I am getting emails about these shafts, remember, they are not yet available, it will be around the end of the month.
I informed the guy who owns the local shop about this.He is pretty excited about it.
