Yessir. Just killed my bear with the Neurotoxin. Also seen bears killed with the Phobia, the Red Backs and the Huntsman.

I shot through my bear with the Neurotoxin and then through a wood pile and bounced it off a few logs. Flexed it, cleaned it up and back in the quiver it went. Good as new.

I feel so sorry for those guys. It has been a shipping nightmare. Not only slower shipping, but held up at customs, orders getting held up coming from US to Canada.

If it could go wrong, it has gone wrong.

It was well worth the wait for me though.

just thought i would give an update on these arrows. so i never did get my arrows. I finally asked for a refund. I got my refund but what i didn't know was that this Company out of Grand Prairie or they sold it as , they sell the arrows in US dollar. my bad for not noticing that but so when they refunded me my money i got shorted money because the canadian dollar is little better now than when i originally made the order back in april. They don't see to care. Says its not his fault they just refunded the same US dollar amount. witch in the end they made extra money on the deal and i got screwed out a little bit of money. its not a lot of money but just a point. Brutal Customer Service will not answer the phone but just replys to emails. Also i had few other buddies order from them and they got the same screw around. Every week they said they shipped then week would go buy still nothing. Very Frustrating to deal with.

Not good

I agree that bites,
but they have no control over currency flucuation.


Heres one for you.... Just a heads up ......

Watch out when you book a Hotel room,
some places, especially if its a large chain, will charge U.S. dollars ,
depends where the call center is,

YOU have to ask,what currency you are being charged,

US or canadian dollars.

I found this out by accident a few years back when I was on the road.

The people taking the calls just punch in your info you give them.


Now I always ask!!

I hope Arachnid pulls it together. There arrows look promising.

I got a few dozen a few months ago. Still haven't assembled them. After I ordered them they were shipped the next day. With the super slow shipping it took over a month to get the arrows in hand. The arrows look really good. I will report back once there assembled and I have a chance to try them

Did you get insert and nocks with yours? A buddy got some and had no inserts or nocks, just shafts.

Might be reviving an old thread but anyone know what’s going on with them? Went to their website and it said “coming back summer 2022”
Interested in their arrows but kind of skeptical.
I want to support a local business but keep hearing horror stories too

Haven’t seen any new posts or anything from them in over a year. Some of the guys that were shooting those arrows are now not. I would bet unavailable.

Give Big Star Arrrow a look up. Local. Actually local. Stock is in Cochrane. Not the states like arachnid was. Pricing is good and the arrows and more importantly the components seem to be better quality.

I would however strip the fletching and re fletch as they are a touch soft.
