My arrows are as cheap as I can get them and as strong and efficent as I can get them. I am shooting beman ics bowhunters.
Anyone that thinks you need .001 straightness for hunting arrows has never shot wood arrows before. get out some calipers and see how big .006 really is. that kind of straightness is only needed in field archery for pros.
I also use 100grain brass inserts and 300 grain points or for hunting a 100 grain BH adapter and 200 grain grizzly broadhead.
These figures are not including fletching, I use wild turkey feathers and 3″ feathers so 4-5 feathers will do 4 arrows. I also didn’t include the footing that I put on my arrows because you can always find someone willing to donate a couple shafts for footing.
My practice arrows and 3D arrows cost me $5.25ea. and my hunting arrows cost me $11.33ea.
Beman ICS bowhunter =$3.75
100gr Brass insert =$1.08
300gr Field point =$0.42
100gr Broadhead adapter =$0.67
200gr Grizzly BH =$5.83
this is the cheapest setup I can come up with for target and get them the way I want them. And they fly straight with feathers and without. I could use cheaper broadheads but they wouldn’t be what I want from them. IMHO I think grizzly makes the best broadhead for the money.
