Contemplating some new arrows. Still in the running are Griz Stiks, the Byron Ferguson editions of the Gold Tips or maybe some of the Nugent Gold Tips. Wife is definitely getting the pink Nuge GT's.

Any suggestions?

I would highly reccomend the Arrow dynamics shafting. You get all the advantages of a tapered shaft minus the super high prices, and they are super easy to tune.

im very happy with my gold tip trads , though shafts.  really want to try some arrow dynamics someday.

I've shot everything you've mentioned and prefer to back up James on this one, Arrow Dynamics are tops in my book.

things to ponder.....

Thanks for the info.

I really like the Arrow Dynamics shafts, too. I've found they really do eliminate a lot of the tuning process. Just get the nock height right, add a reasonable weight head, and get to shooting. The Hammerheads, if you want a heavy shaft, are exceptionally tough, more so than any other I've tried.
