Title: Digital scale recommendations?
Post by: JEJ on March 09, 2010, 10:52:00 AM
Well my Martin weight scale spring has sprung, so my field points end up reading enough weight to bring down a healthy elephant. I need to get something to weigh points, arrows, etc. so my arrows match closer. Looking at getting a digital scale, and wondered if anyone has any suggestions, experience, etc. thanks! (Moderators, please move this if on wrong forum, thanks)

I have one that fits in my pocket.It does grains,kilo,and to others I can't remember. Its called The Black Box.No joke I bought it at a store that sells concert tickets and tour shirts and paraphernalia for the dead heads.3R sells good ones as well.

I use a Digiweigh, works perfect for what I need it to do, weigh arrows, points etc.... Think I paid $18 for it!

I just got the one from 3Rivers and it works great.  Even came with batteries.

Thanks for the leads guys. Hey lpcjon2 now why would a place that sells Dead Head paraphernalia sell something like a scale to measure weight ... oh, wait, you said it measures in kilos too, never mind.

:rolleyes:

When I was looking people kept telling me to get a Carbon Express scale. Rocky Moutain Specialty Gear stocks them

US Thunder scale from Kustom King works good for me. Easy to calibrate and operate.

Black Widow used to sell a pocket digital scale for $20.  I think they still may.  Great Scale.  Same as the large sporting goods stores, Half the price.
