I'd also like to see the old autumn orange come back along with my favorite sizes I used to shoot and are now discontinued, 2113 and 2115.

I just got a handful from a TGer, but unsure how to crest/wrap and fletch/nock them.  Would love to see some of your best color combinations for the aft end of the arrow.

Would really like them brought back...just not "New & Improved". Don't mess with success.

XX75's in Autumn Orange were my favorite shafts.  Especially shooting tournaments....easier to find on a missed shot, but I think that is why the manufacturers went to cammo.....they prolly sold more.  :)

I have a few AO 1916s, AO and GG 1918s, GG 1920s, AO and GG 2016s, 2018s and AO 2020s.  I still think they are easier to tune than carbons, but it is probably just that I have more experience with them.  The spine is sure consistent.

Maybe an e-mail campaign or a petition to Easton?  We could point them to threads like this.  It will come down to market size since they are a business.

i have gone through at least 10 dozen xx75 "autumn orange" shafts - for target arrows only.  out in the field, as a hunting or roving arrow, they can't take the punishment i dish out.  x7's are better, but still fall short of even the cheapest carbon shafting.  heck, i have woodies that a beating better in the field than any xx75 alum.  NOT to say i don't like or miss those orange devils!

My favorites.  Wish they still sold them.

I'd buy a dozen or two or three if Easton would start makin them again. Gotta love the autumn orange! Jason

Hey guys, I already talked to Easton over a couple of years and they will make them any time some one wants.....  You just have to commit to buy 5000 shafts per size.  They don't see a demand in them to stick their neck out on them.   I still hoard the few I have. Bring back some memories.

It seems as though the interested tradgang members could cover the 5,000 minimum order?? Who is in??

I would buy some, but it might be hard getting everyone to agree on what size...

I want 1918s 1920s 1818s and 1820s. these floppier spines are heavier and work better out of longbows and shorter than 28" draw. I'd be in if they were available for sure.

Benoli

Only 5000! I'm in for 2 dozen 2016's so we only need another 414 dozens.
One stick, one string and an arrow I'll fling!

You know I'm in if they become available.
