Hello Trad Gang,

We're excited to let you know we've brought in some new carbon shafting that should meet the needs of most traditional archers, and it won't break the bank either.        This new Carbon Express Predator II shafting represents quality and value.  I've been testing these for about 8 months and I believe you're going to like them.

You can get a look here:

  Carbon Express Shafts at Braveheart Archery

These are available in 4 spines.

20/40 -  .600
30/50 -  .500
45/60 -  .400
60/75 -  .340

Thanks!  Tim @ Braveheart

New shafts look great Tim. Pricing is excellent too!

Can you post the gpi for the different spines?

Another ????  Will the brass inserts I used in the CX Terminator Hunters fit into these shafts?

Are the inserts alum? Are heavier brass ones avail?

Here's a few more specs:

Predator II specifications:

20/40 -  .600 spine,  Max. length 30" B.O.P. - 7.7 g.p.i. with chartreuse nocks.

30/50 -  .500 spine,  Max. length 30 1/4" B.O.P. - 8.3 g.p.i. with white nocks.

45/60 -  .400 spine,  Max. length 30 3/8" B.O.P. - 8.8 g.p.i. with white nocks.

60/75 -  .340 spine,  Max. length 31 1/4" B.O.P. - 9.7 g.p.i. with green nocks.

This link will give you more detail than I can provide here:

You can use standard weighted 5/16" inserts or insert adapters for the 45/60's and 60/75's.  They WILL NOT fit the 20/40's and 30/50's though, those are slightly smaller.  The 20/40's and 30/50's are sized like the Heritage 90 and Thunderstorms. To point load those I suggest the use of steel broadhead adapters.

The supplied inserts are all aluminum.  We carry extra nocks and inserts for all of them though, also good news for those of you who have had a hard time finding components for your Heritage 90's.

ttt for the morning crowd.  :D
