Easton stalkers 2216

[Guiltytundra]

Hello all I bought some black stalkers 2216 3 rivers has a nice deal running on them and am wondering if all 2216 get bent that easily or if it's just the black stalkers.i had been using xx75 2020s and have really beat em up stumping and had only had one of 12 mushroom at the tip(hit a tree) lost about half of em and bent one. I've only been shooting traditional a little over a year and those are the only two spines I've use and was wondering if 2020s are just tough as hell or if 2216s just aren't very durable.ive bent 6 of the 24 just shooting at a target bag. Anyway any info would be appreciated either way I'm going back to the 2020s for sure

It has been my experience that 2020 are much tougher than 2216.

OK so it's not just the the stalkers thank you.

The way Easton measures there Aluminum shafts is;

First two numbers is the diameter 64ths of an inch

Second two numbers is wall thickness in thousands.

So 22 = 22/64 or .3838"

16 = .016"

2020s are probably the toughest Easton aluminum arrow.Thats why I shot them when I was shooting heavier bows.Cant believe they stopped making them.With the small diameter and thick wall and higher grain weight they made an awesome hunting arrow.

You might need to be a little more careful with the 2216s as far as torcher testing them.
