I am in need of some carbon shafts. Want to buy them made in the USA. Which carbon shafts are made in the US and do any of the TG sponsers carry them.
Thanks...Mike
Mike, I'm not aware of any, any more. Sad but our own fault! :) ....O.L.
The Traditional Only by Easton are American made and can be bought at 3 Rivers.
Arrow Dynamics are made in Kansas USA. Beman USA. Trad Only made by Easton/Beman USA. I do not have them all listed on my website. I can special order them.
I belive Carbon Tech are still made in the USA.
I only know of one , dont think the rest of them empoyee Americans...Arrow Dynamics is the only one I know...several years ago I look into this, unless something has change!..others mentioned are made in Korea I think...Im not postive.But when I was rep covering 6 states this was fact.
As Badger said , Arrow Dynamics are made in good ole Kansas USA, the only carbons we carry!
I thought Gold Tips are made in the USA. At least the ones I have are. They tried making them in Mexico, but ended up bringing them back to the US.
I have been shooting GTs if they are made in the US I will stay with them, if not, I wll switch. Heard they moved production out of the US.
Thanks for the help guys.
Mike
Carbon Tech is in the process of shipping their equipment overseas to have them made. Just heard that the other day. Sad news indead, they are a great shaft.
3Rivers's Traditional Only shafts are made by Easton right here in the United States. Arrow Dynamics also is made here in the US too. Don't know if there are any others still, but I am positive of those two. dino
Easton
Arrow Dynamics
Carbon Tech ( I think)
Beman (this is an Easton Product)
The new 3rivers arrow is made by Easton
Beman , I dont think are , carbon express isnt either...iTS TIME BUY USA...come to the aid of you're country!!!! maybe buy wood!!! :)
AMG offers USA made carbons
I decided a couple of weeks ago to do just what bayoulongbowman said and am going all wood this year and USA made products as much as I can. Nothing against our neighbors and friends, just want to help US products.
Easton/Beman shafts are apparently made in this country. Depending on where you look, you can usually get raw shafts from $40/dozen for black to $60/dozen for wood grain.
So nobody shops at Walmart, Lowes, Home Depot etc?

Victory arrows are American made, but they only make light shafts. They use to be a sub contracted company for GT.
AD Trads:)
If I'm not mistaken Grizzly Stiks are made in the US.
Grizzly Sticks are imported to the US.
The label states it in the package.
Huh, for some reason I thought I thought they were made buy a company that also makes fishing rods. Thanks for the correction.
SteveB, Nope, I do not shop at Wal Mart, Lowes or Home Depot.
Victory shafts are made in my home town of San Diego. I just switched over to them to support the cause. It helps when it is a great product, excellent spine consistency.
Victory shafts are made in mexico.
Are the black shafts and the woodgrain shafts the same diameter in the Gts?
Where is your pc your typing on made. Walt if i had to drive an hour and a half one way to get there i would not shop there either. -- It does suck though try to buy some cloths made in the US
As mentioned Easton makes their shafts here. In fact they prefer it that way so they can maintain better quality control.
On one of the episodes of Easton Bowhunting with Fred Eichler they went through the shaft manufacturing plant in Utah. Good stuff.
Easton aluminum is made in the USA....don't need no stinking carbons 8^).
If you decide on cedar I have quite a lot. Just let me know if interested and what spine. Also have 2 dz. Beman 2100's, $40/dz.
Thanks,
Cheryl Stahl

What am I missing? What carbons are at Walmart, Lowes and Home Depot?
Large % of the goods at those stores and many others are Chinese and or imports. Just wondering if those who want to buy only American arrows apply the same criteria to all purchases.
If not, why not?
I shop for quality and price with place of manufacture last. I am far from alone - and see a lot of trad posters talk about buying all kinds of stuff at Walmart - just curious as to why arrows are different.
Beman ICS are made in Utah. Most of the better arrows made by Easton are USA. Older GTs were made in the US, you can still find some with the flags if you look around. Just keep asking for USA products, it helps.
This computer was made by Micron in Idaho out of mostly USA parts in 02. It bought it on ***** just so I could say that.
