Title: Internet arrow puchases?
Post by: LURP DOG on August 27, 2009, 04:26:00 PM
I just received my new bow (used but new to me WHIP) and I'm in need of some new arrows because my new bow is a little heavier in draw weight.
I'm currently using 2016 on my older bow (58", 46# @ 28") but my new one (62", 52# @ 28") I believe I'll need either 2018, 400s or 55/75.
My question is where can I a 1/2 dozen arrows at a good price and good service on the internet?
My local shops deal mostly in wheelies so they only carry vanes on their arrows.

THANX

Badger arrow is who i get mine from.  They have great service.  i have also bought from 3 rivers and kustom king with good results.  All of them are sponsors here, and all build good arrows.  There are other sponsors here that do as well, but these i have personal experience with. Hope this helps.

These run $47.99 a half dozen, the 45/60 is a .400 spine.  I'm sure Paul at Badger or any of the sponsors here can help you out fine too.

I generally buy most of my arrows here in the classifieds, lol. I fletch my own however, so I also buy arrows when they are one sale locally and then just scrape the vanes off and re-fletch with feathers.

Your 2016's should still work, try playing with the point weight a little to stiffen them up, go a little lighter if you need too. 4 lbs shouldn't make that much difference unless you are right on the threshold of being too weak already, they will get to the target a little quicker. I treat the aluminums the same as carbons to get them flexing right.

Kustom King is about the only place I know that a half dozen can be had for about half the cost of a dozen.  I am mainly referring to carbon shafting.  I don't know why other suppliers don't catch on.  You may not live long enough to need a second half dozen unless you're a really bad shot or prone to taking shots at squirrels in treetops! (nothing wrong with that)

SlowBowinMo,

Is that the price of the arrows as viewed? With wraps and all?

I would think it would be real tough to shoot feathers and not own a fletching jig.  I got that cheap bohning one and love it.  It is really easy to do.
