Default Walmart Arrows

I have 3 arrows from walmart and i can get 3 touching at 20 yards. I dont see the need to shell out 60 bucks for twelve when u can only shoot one at a time.

Just thought i would post this to show u that u dont neeed a top of the line arrows to get good groups.

P.S They also hang about 4" over my rest.

Yes, you're certainly right, you can indeed get good groups with them. One thing to keep in mind about "Wal Mart" arrows though. They are typically rejects from the manufacturer and they sell them Wally World at a considerably reduced price. I've seen those arrows bend and break when shot. Be sure to check them often.

I'm not a big Wal Mart shopper either, but I got some Carbon Express Terminator Hunters (camo) there awhile back and they shoot great! Bought a bunch more night before last. They are 31" long and weigh 407 grains without a point - but group very well and really quiet the bow down. I have shot several 2" groups at 40 yards with these arrows.

I'm not a big fan of the "evil empire", but I bought up as many of the Carbon Express Terminator Lites (4560's 29" long,I believe) at the end of last season from WalMart at $3 a pop. Shoot great and don't see any problem with them.
