x2 --- Custom arrows should always be .001 :shock:
This could explain your accuracy problems, especially if the first ones were .005

Are they from the same custom arrow maker? I agree with Mike, the least he could've done is upgraded your arrows to .001 or better yet, .001 zombies after all the hassle he's caused.

But the expensive lessons are the ones we never forget. So you have that going for you.

Even the .003" should shoot well if they are made right. Good luck, hope you get all dialed in for the season in short order.

The. 003 will still kill stuff and will work great within normal hunting ranges. Best of luck this season...

....a Big Pard on me here....BP pick yourself up an arra saw (some even use a Dremel), a squaring tool, a cheap scale and the Arizona EZ Fletch Bolt and for the most part you have your arra building tools... Then you will have lots of fun crafting and building your own babies...

.... I do it... Trust me, if I can do it so can anyone!
