Default Arrow selection

Going to order some new arrows tomorrow . Shooting a carbon knight 65lb draw , 27.5 inch arrow length . Went over the carbon express site for adjusted bow draw weight . Matches up to the maxima 350's. Open to suggestions as well , will be used for hunting . Just want to make sure I'm getting the proper arrows

Go for it. Can't go wrong with the maximas. I've been using maxima blue streak select for years, no problems. Very consistent and durable.

agreed. tough arrow and work well with almost every setup. make sure they are spined correct for your setup. bumping up the draw weight 5-6lbs can throw you off

Love the Blue Streaks...little rubbing Acohol and steel wool removed blue paint and blacked them out...awesome arrows for broadheads for which they were designed...worth the sight extra cost IMHO

Curious why you chose the Blue streaks.

I also have a Carbon Night. 62lbs and one good 28.5" Easton St Excell 400 remaining.

I found Carbon Express Maxima Red 350's on sale for 76.99/half dozen.

At only $7 (per half dozen) more for the Reds. I think I might go with them.

Any other opinions? Good or bad?
