Little help with brand of arrows

[5MilesBack]

One thing that I noticed when they did this torture test was Gold tips arrows ability to come back straighter than the other arrows. The Carbon Express arrow was the only other arrow that came close. Most of the other arrows were bent and junk after bending them.

I don't think my arrows will ever have to bend that far in a real life scenario. They should be testing them by shooting them into hard stuff. My Kinetic 200 last year hit a rock under the ground surface and when I pulled it out and picked it up by the nock end, the entire arrow fell down to the sides like an umbrella frame. Never seen anything like it.

Arrows need to be tough. No denying that but I'm concerned with arrows remaining straight after hitting something or just putting them in quiver and getting them snagged on something. I don't shoot kinetics. When I saw this demonstration in person he tested all the gold tip arrows and a lot of the other brands and the gold tips always performed better on every test. Especially the bending test. He bent arrows over his knee then spun them in an arrow spinner. Gold tips always come back straighter than all the others. Just my .02.

I have also been extremely unsatisfied with my kinetics, durable would not be a word I use to describe them.
