Well it’s that time of year, I have a little time on my hands and I have been playing with arrow set ups. Stiffer arrows, brass inserts, shaft weight and foc blah blah blah. I am considering spending the money on the grizzlystiks package and wondering if any of you guys have used them or know someone who has. I have noticed a much quieter shot and inches more if penetration in my bag target consistently with stiffer arrows and heavier points. (Which makes sense). I have gone back and forth over the years from heavy slow arrows to light and fast. Since I won’t shoot past 30 yds while hunting with my compound the trajectory doesn’t bother me.
Maybe I have been watching too much ranch fairy videos of too many THP podcasts ;)

I can't bring myself to spend that much on their full arrow setup. I'm also with you on shots 30 yards and under, most way under 30, I'm not convinced I need an arrow with the precision they claim at that yardage. I do use their 175 grain maasai broadhead, which I'll say is great. The same head has gone through the shoulder of a bear and the spine of a buck the past two seasons. Sharpen back up and good to go.

How do your groups look? Killing deer effectivily? I just cannot see that the cost benefit ratio of the super high end arrows, broadheads etc makes sense. But if cost is no object new toys can be fun.

Thanks guys, Cost is always a factor with me;). I have always bought cheap to mid grade arrows . I have been all over the board from year to year back and forth from expandable to fixed heads , aluminum to carbon, fletchings to feathers etc.....
I bought a new bow and now have a 25 yd range in my basement so I have been flinging a ton of arrows and have been testing different arrow setups. It amazes me stiffer arrows with 100 grains more up front group much quieter, tighter groups and penetrate several inches more in my bag target.
