RE: Gold Tips
The extra benefit of the GT's is that you can buy nock pins, or even use Easton ACC nocks, to protect the tail end. I use the nock pins on my arrows and have not destroyed one yet. The metal isdinged up and I would have had to buy at least a few dozen arrows so far this year if not for the nock pins.

I have ACC's, Bemans and XT 5575's and seem to keep grabbing the Xt's. They just seem to work well for me. Shot a bear thursday with 3 year old XT5575. Complete pass through and can reuse the arrow no problem.

Here's 2 of my XT's at 50 yds. If I were a better shot they'd be dead center. This is why I see no reason to spend more for the Pros or even other arrows. I've done all sorts of things to get the 7595's to spine right because of liking these arrows. You can see the nock pins and pin nocks on the end with my awesome Onestringer Pittsburgh Steeler wraps.

I had mine made by onestringer. Mindy does first class custom work and she will work with you to get a design that you like. Wraps were only $8/dz including shipping compared to $12 for plain white ones everywhere else. can do just about anything. he's a link to her thread in the Archery Gear Forum. She also has a website.
