Day 6 gear

Thinking about getting some Day Six arrows built and maybe some broadheads too. What are your opinions on them?

I have been using their fixed broadheads for a couple years now without complaints. Last year was the first I have tried their shafts. Hunted with them, and actually have switched my field setup over to using them now.

Overall pretty pleased with them. I use Tophat Collars on the back and a Beiter .204 hunter nock instead of what they supply. My field shafts have Tophat glue in points.

I appreciate the feedback, I shoot Tooth of The Arrow broadheads currently, and Easton Axis arrows. I dont necessarily have a reason to switch cause my setup shoots just fine, but I think Day 6 is the route I will go when the time comes.

I’ve been interested in the 5mm arrow they make. I haven’t found many reviews or personal experiences with them. I’m also currently shooting axis and could drop a little in arrow weight with the day six 5mm.

I've done some looking around, everything I've read says you can't go wrong with their products

I have kinda settled on companies I want to support. There's some I flat won't buy or use products from, and then there's some that I appreciate what they are doing, and want to help keep them in the market place. The archery industry is actually pretty small, and a lot of it is owned by a few companies.

I think D6 has been sticking to making quality products, even when it goes against the grain a bit. They have recently picked up an investor, but I think largely the company has stayed the same. It has definitely gotten more attention lately.

Great tolerance, both straightness and spine, durable shafts, and good components. Unless you’re going for the lightest gpi shaft, you certainly can’t go wrong with them

Once I get an arrow built for my recurve and have a ballpark on spine/shaft length and point weight, I’m going to get some day 6, because consistency is huge in that game
