Thanks Just worried the shafts wouldn't match broadheads aka different inserts! I don't understand the brass insert and weight issues.

brass inserts weigh more so you have more weight up front.. thats the only difference in the 2 styles of inserts

but slicks on that arrow will do fine;)

where can I get the Fire Bolt arrows that came with my lite stuff package? I'd like to get 6 more and have everything match. The bolts shoot very well. I don't know what other bolts match these in weight etc....Thanks for the imput.

Do the Fire Bolts come with brass inserts?


Thanks...

Thanks, that's what I thought from what I've been picking up on this site.

So because of the aluminum inserts you need to go with the 150 gr. heads, correct?

Take care...
