Now you can go ahead and call me a cheapskate all you want, but lately I have been getting a little fed up with the cost of arrows and arrow components. The old Gold Tip Warriors are now the cost of what the Gold Tip Traditionals were a few short years ago when I got into this traditional archery stuff, and now GT trads have gone up a fair bit since then. I can't seem to find very good deals on GT trad blem shafts on ebay anymore. I think the straw that broke the camels back was when I went into the local Sportsman's Warehouse yesterday and a half dozen Gold Tip traditionals had taken a steep $20 increase from $75 to $95 per half dozen. Hahaha yeah, get bent, gold tip.
Lately I have been seeing the posts from Beendare talking about how he has been buying Accmos and Link Boy arrows from amazon and that they have been working out really well for him. I also saw a YouTube video from the samko tradbow guy where he goes over his "poor boy arrow set up". I decided to take the plunge and I have a full dozen .500 spine carbon arrows fletched with 4 inch feathers for about $74 with taxes and everything headed my way. I'm excited to get them and try them out. I'll report back later once I've had a chance to zip a few downrange. If the arrows are as good as I hope they are I will probably set myself up with a pile of them in a few different spines and all the major arrow manufacturers can take their goofy prices and stuff it.
