Gold Tip trad kills?

Bullfrog 1 · August 10, 2015, 07:22:00 PM

I always have thought there are better shafts out there but man they fly good for me? Let me see some big animal kills taken with these. Any concerns? Thanks. Bill

I've taken a boatload of critters with Gold Tip arrows; the black ones, not the trad shafts.

There are way better shafts out there. By better, I mean tighter consistency in spine and straightness. I used to have to go thru several dz GT shafts to get a couple groups of like spine. They work just fine as long as your tune is good, and you just ditch the occasional flier.

Now I shoot Easton FMJ's now, and they are all within 10/1000ths of an inch in spine.

My first trad big game! I'm using GT Kinetics now.

I always had good luck with CX Heritage 150,but was looking for a different set up,and Big Jim had some blems. I got some and they seem to be tougher and they did the job on this deer.

Impressive array of harvests, Basinboy.

I've only just started using them. I've always shot CEs when I switched from aluminum.

I've only been using them for a short time, but I like them so far. They shoot very well for me. They may not be as rugged as some of the other arrows I've used, but they seem to hold up pretty well.

These are the biggest critters I've killed with them so far. The doe in the first picture was shot from above. She turned just as I loosed the arrow, and I hit the shoulder blade. The arrow penetrated the shoulder and lungs, but didn't exit. Gold Tip Traditional,5575/400's.

Last years deer. 17 yard shot 5575 630 grns altogether. Got great penetration it was the breast bone that stopped my arrow.
