Need input on arras

Post by BrotherRon »

I know there are quite a few people here that shoot a lot with their crossbows, and I also know that there are more than a few people here that make custom arrows. With that said, who should I contact to get the best arrows for both target shooting and deer hunting with my Matrix 310 ?
Shoot me a PM rather than posting names here as I wouldn't want anyone to feel left out by not seeing their name here.

Thanks
Ron.

One would certainly expect them to, wah :?: @ $120 bones per 1/2 dozen :!: :shock: :lol:
Compete with 6 Lumenoks @$30 for 3 (custom fitted), 6 Custom Wraps, and 6 top shelf .001 Zombie BE Carbons (weight matched) and shipped for $120.
The Delusional Donky (DD) can't see past the price.

W/ all that's going on in Big Johns world right now i think i read that he's putting everything on the back burner so he can stay focused on his family.

Swamp, are you able to break down the component cost of each arrow part from different manufacturers and add in factors such as:

-Shipping from each supplier
-International dollar $ exchange
-Duties and taxers
-postage and packaging price and fuel for postal drop off.

Can you explain to everyone WHAT is overpriced about Big John's arrows?

That would be for the 0.003" Executioners.

I may be mistaken, but I don't see where it says free shipping.

There's an old saying, "GOODS WORTH PRICE CHARGED".Kind of like buying an Excalibur, you can buy a cheaper bow but not a better bow. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Were does DCA list Custom Zombies with Lumenoks just the way Big John sells them.
BTW, just happened to notice your cam "Selfie" at the other site. Better both lay off the junk food or it's Tommy Fullfigure on you.
