Wal-Mart sells Carbon Express, I believe they   are Rebels and Hunter Lites, either 4560 or 5570 spine in 29" or 31".

Which arrow depends on your draw length, which in turn affects the OAL of your arrow and it's spine...

Don't forget feathers, because I've never seen any arrows sold at walmart with feathers.

Depending on the shaft length and point you want to shoot, a Gold Tip 3555 cut at 28.5-29" should work well if shooting a 125 gr point. If you want a longer arrow and heavier point, the Gold tip 5575 should work. Sipsey River sells the Gold Tips as cheap as anyone, also a Sponsor of the site. 205-387-2388
