Looking at gold tip and Easton arrows for my Mathews switchback. With so many choices it’s hard to decide. I was looking on bass pro website and each brand has 10+ arrow names. Give me your preferred brand arrow to shoot.

I shoot beman ICS precision hunters.


I think most people on here will recommend gold tip.

That’s what I used last year, my first year bow hunting. Missed a buck with them and just looking to upgrade. Pretty sure it wasn’t the arrows fault though.

Edit: beman ICS bowhunter is what I used

Black eagle carnivores have shot well for me . It's only my 3rd season using them though... can't go wrong with gold tips either

Gold Tip Hunter or XT Hunter.

I shoot Easton axis 5mm and personally think they out perform my former fmj's in hunting situations.

I've been very pleased with my gold tip kinetics so far. Robin hooded my girlfriends arrow a few days ago and split it from knock to insert. Didn't do any damage to mine at all. Much tougher than fmj's. Only bad thing is, I shoot right through most targets.

Gold tip, Easton, Carbon Express- they are all good these days. A lot of it for me comes down to personal preference, price, and application.

I'm shooting some black eagle carnivores, 250 spine, with 125 grain points, and nockturnal nocks. They are shooting well for so far.

I purchased some gold tip hunter XTs. Went into bass pro to just get arrows and walked out with new broadheads, nocturnals, a new quiver, and arrows. Can’t go in that place without spending money. Oh well....

Thanks for all the advice.

Been shooting Beman for close to 20 years even back when they had the small shaft arrow. Shot the 400's for years and then moved to the 340's. No problems with them at all. It's all preference.

I've really been trying out some different arrows as of late. I've been experimenting with carbon express Maxima blue streak(8.3 gpi), Easton fmj 6mm (10.3 gpi), & Gold tip Hunter XT (9.3 gpi). They are all great arrows that fly great. I ended up going with the Hunter XT 300's that Shaw recommended a couple years back. I bought them and never had a chance to try them out until now. The xts evened out my pin gaps perfectly. there's no big gap in between some of my pins anymore, all are about the same. It was a tough decision going away from my blue streaks, that I've shot for the last decade, but I wanted a little heavier arrow this year, so the xts were right in the middle of all I tried.
