Which arrows are the best?
I just recently purchased a new Matthew's DXT and now need to get some new arrows. It is between the Easton A/C/C Shafts and the Carbon Express Maxima Hunter. I really like the Maxima Hunters but from some of the reviews i have read the Easton's are a really good arrow to. I was just wondering which one most of you would go with. What are some of the likes and dislikes of these arrow.

I shoot the Eastons and I like them a lot. I have never had a problem with them. They fly as straigh as my bow will shoot them. I can't tell you about the Maxima hunters though.....But I have not heard a complaint about the A/C/C's yet.

It's all in the eye of the beholder.. I have shot Gold Tips, Easton and now Carbon Express. I have killed animals with all of them. I have had no bad experiences with any of them. What ever my local bow shop carries is generally what i go with. I don't personally believe there is a right answer..

I'm kinda partial the Easton ST Axis Carbon N-Fused. They have given me the best results of any arrows I've shot. I like the Maxima Hunters, too, but I prefer the small diameter shafts of the STs, and I can get an arrow for $9 apiece rather than the $13 for the Maximas.

I have not shot the a/c/c, but I really like the full metal jacket. I also shot the maxima hunter. I really like both. They are consistent. Can't go wrong with either one. It's down to price and preference on shaft diameter.

I actually have both, CA max, and easton axis. I totally prefer the ca max. The axis is a little to thin for me and for some reason the quick spin blazer vanes just dont perform as well as the max with my set up. Just my opinion.

I shoot the maxima hunter arrows and they fly like darts. I have already shoot easton quite a bit and I far more impressed with theses arrows. Not saying that the eastons are bad because they are excellent arrows too, but for hunting I think you will have trouble beating the max hunter.

Acc's or fmj are better than carbons but the down sidesare: A. they cost more and B.they are not as resistant to failure as carbons.
If you've got the cash it's a no brainer but if you're on a budget orare rough with your arrows, think about purecarbons.
