Victory HLR Reviews?

[imurhuckleb3rry]

Those who shoot or have experience with the newer Victory HLR shafts, why did you/do you choose it over similar shafts like the new Easton 5.0, Gold Tip Airstrike, or other?

Considering trying some new arrows. Leaning Easton 5.0 for cost/quality, but never shot Victory and curious. Currently shooting Gold Tip Airstrike 300's out of my V3X 29 at 75# & 27" DL.

As a huge fan of the RIP TKOs, I would probably switch to the HLRs if I didn't already have 3 dozen of the RIP TKOs. The carbon weave on the outside makes for quite a durable shaft, plus with the lighter GPI you can get a decent weight with good FOC.

It will be interesting to see how they compare to the Easton 5.0s for long term use.

Big fan of the rip tko also, i just got some of the 5.0 last week. I will be odering the Hlr also to try out.

Prefer American made Eastons.

I have heard of some issued with the 5.0's but overall they seem to be pretty good. Obviously if durability is your concern the 5.0 is gonna be a lot less durable than the HLR. I have shot eastons but just built some new VAP TKO's for myself. And I will say so far I am really liking victory arrows. If it was me I would go HLR. I'm also curious if you've thought of going 4mm route? 5mm are really nice to though.

In my experience, you may be disappointed in the quality control of VAPs.

What do you mean. What issues have you had. After building all of my arrows they are all within 1 grain of each other which is really good
