Question for the more knowledgeable…..
I’ve had about a 6 year hiatus from whitetail archery hunting for various reason (couple late season elk rifle hunts primarily). I’ve a 9 year old Bowtech Experience and a dozen Easton Axis 400 Spine 9.0 gpi arrows. I’m 5’5” so have a short draw length but can’t remember exact numbers. Getting the bow dropped off tomorrow for new string and upgrades. Bow and arrows were in a case in garage all those years and have been thru some cold winters but not much heat and no sunlight.
Do you all think they arrows are still good to go or would the years and temperature cycles have weakened them? Should I shoot them and if I see they are not holding up them replace or be proactive from the start?
I’m headed back to Colorado this year (hopefully) to hunt early archery season and don’t want to waste time with these if I’m likely to replace anyway.
Any thoughts are much appreciated.
