what's better carbon arrows or aluminum???

Question

pro's and con's
I've always shot carbon, but thinking of switching

Answer 1

In the 3 decades I have been hunting with Bow I have used wood, fiberglass, aluminum and Carbon.
I am amazed at just how good the carbon arrows are.
No other arrow I have ever used have taken the punishment and even still stayed in the quiver like the carbon.
True the carbon is more expensive then the aluminum arrow but the carbon arrow has lasted better then 3 to 1 over the aluminum.
With aluminum arrows you will need to have an arrow straightened quite often.
For they warp and bend very easy, hit a tree, deer or rocky soil and you will normally you will warp or bend the aluminum arrow out of tune.
Where as the carbon will flex and come back to true shape.
I have one carbon arrow I nock in my bow the start of each deer season, for the last 3 years.
That same arrow has taken 3 Bucks and 2 Does thus far and is still in perfect tune.

For the money I would have to say Carbon is a wise investment.
