    Default Wal-Mart $4. Arrows!

    Hey Guys, I like to test things cheap or expensive! I have some expensive arrows, medium priced, and just bought some cheap $4. arrows. In testing them out the do weight a bit. But they fly great. Broadhead testing they hit well all the way out to 40yds. I guess anyway you look at it. Its a dead deer.

    i bought some of them last year. the ones w green/white blazers. i thought the flew pretty good. the fletching comes of too easy though. looking forward to the test results.

    i also bought some Carbon Express 2216 aluminum arrows for $2/ea. they fly good but bend way to easy. well,compared to the 2315's and 2117's i used to shoot

    The carbon exacta arrows we bought are made by Allen. They are inexpensive but work well. Cut in an arrow saw the cut well. They are a stiffer arrow so you might have to use 125grain bh. But as far as distance shooting so far they are fine.

    ^^ The way it should be, never having to know if customer service is great or not! Too bad it isn't that way for all companies. It makes you wonder when eveyone knows about great customer service from a company doesn't it? ^^
