Title: Youth Carbons fletched with feathers?
Post by: DanielB89 on December 18, 2015, 09:40:00 AM
a local parent asked me to help her get her daughter sat up with her first bow.  We decided on getting her a samick sage #30@28, and i'm thinking her draw is around 24".  

Does anyone know where I can get some youth(not sure what spine)

I can't find exactly what i'm looking for so I thought I would see if you fellas could help me out!

I'd go with Carbon Express Predators 1000. They come with nocks. Leave them full length and tune with Carbon Express Medallion XR 500-1100 target points which have adjustable weights of 110,100,90,60.

I had D&M make my wife some GT Trad Blems in 15/35 spine. These are priced as cheap as Walmart arrows on sell, but are better quality, look better and support our sponsors. D&M did great work. Her arrows are nicer than the ones I made for myself.

Here they are in a quiver I made her.

Predator 800 with glue in 80 g nibs. They work very well for the lighter weight bows.
No real need to go any weaker, they will just be more fragile and not likely you'll get the weaker shafts to shoot any better any way.
The predator 800 are the same price as the blems but the points are a few bucks more. The big advantage is that they are much lighter and are smaller diameter so they are closer to center.

They are our best selling carbon express shaft.

Someone sent me an email and offered some 1616's.  The woman did not have a lot to spend on her girl, so we had to work on a rather tight budget for both a bow and arrows.
