Does FA carry High country or is high country bending thier rules now? They don't sell HC bows. I think they did a while ago. I have no idea what the rules are. just that they ordered them at the ATA show

Just checked the Patriots .... out of buisness I used those arrows and still have some fletched up. They were truly fantastic shafts (made in Mexico too). I was real sorry to see them go out of business. They came with marks on them that showed you where the dynamic spine was. I loved Super Carbons too, and they went out of business as well; have a little over a dozen left. Got a favorite arrow company; or maybe one you hate? Let me know and I'll start using them so they can go out of business, too... They are not going to be any cheaper, but you might look into these lesser known companies to see if they fit the bill since I don't know what spine you are looking for (if you haven't already): www.nitrostinger.com/products.cfmwww.forgebow.com/arrows.htmlwww.customarchery.com/phantom.htmwww.carbontecharrows.com/www.carbonimpact.com/ (Green or Orange Fat XLT??)

Victory shafts....forgot all about them and they are connected with trail watcher for goodness sakes. I am getting overloaded I guess.

The Trophy ridge are starting to look interesting and Keystone is picking up the Vapor shafts so we will see what happens I guess.

I don't see any mention of Easton or Beman as potential arrows. Is there a reason for this?

I don't see any mention of Easton or Beman as potential arrows. Is there a reason for this? Good question. Right now I'm looking at Easton Lightspeeds. Considerably cheaper than the Gold Tip Ultralight Pro's I'm currently using. There's a straightness difference (.005 vs .001), but with my 25" arrows, I very highly doubt that will be a problem. Easton has a better reputation than Gold Tip when comes to maintaining spine consistency from shaft to shaft.

In my world (the back woods of Idaho) Easton has a great reputation. I have seen very little data on spine consistency from arrow to arrow (sigh), but what I have seen showed the Easton was quite good and Gold Tip was, well, not at good. If a good spine tester wasn't about $250.00 I would get one!
