Carbon arrow inserts
OK I (the old grey mare) have made the switch to carbon arrows vice 25 years of aluminom. but the one thing I can't figure out is how do you remove the point insert to tune the arrow. I used to use a torch and heat the aluminum till the insert came out but I guess you can't do that with carbon cause they will melt.

RE: Carbon arrow inserts
The same way you use too, just heat the point. Try not to put alot of heat into the shaft. I will heat about 4 seconds and try to turn the insert out with pliars, if not put some more heat onto the point.
I still use hot melt glue on my carbons, it's muchbetter than epoxy.
