Just seems too exclusive at the mo, but I am in contact with an arrow maker in china that supplies a lot of big names, they seem to think they can help me so ill go that way.
Korea might be a better choice.

Be patient, only a very limited early run has only been released in the last couple weeks.
500 were released.

just found a very good manufacturer for 18" carbon arrows. good tolerances and seem to be very well made indeed, if the sample order is as good as I hope Ill be getting the Matrix, Ive ordered 12 @ 18 and 12 @ 20 for testing. ill post my findings and some pics when we have done testing :mrgreen:

Sounds like the shipping is killing you. With bowhunting so big over there, why do they not have arrow makers?? You should buy yourself some tools and start a small arrow making business. Buy yourself everything wholesale in large orders and cut the price down considerably. You may like it and solve your problem. :)
