Am I the only old school individual shooting aluminum arrows? Would you believe no bow shop in the Memphis area had the aluminum arrows I wanted. I'm not talking about some odd size either....2413's shafts only. (I build my own arrows) Had to friggin order them from Lancaster. Geeeeeez...where have I been.

i still shooot aluminum arrows.. but i havent bought any in about 3 years now..

I still shoot 'em. They are quiet, accurate and far straighter than most carbons.

I am going back to them this year, last year I had nothing but trouble with the gold tips....I was looking on bass pro website yesterday and I thought I saw where they had some aluminums in stock.

I shoot a longbow and have to use alum's because the carbon do not have enough spine for my bow. I actually get my 2117's from Wal-Mart of all places!

went to carbons last year. Thought I was the only one the planet still shooting aluminum then.

I still shoot aluminum

You can try Bill's Archery in Pearl, he usually carries some or can get you some. I shot them for the longest time.

I shoot wooden hand carved!! NOT!!!

Got the arrows in a few days ago....got em all fletched up. I now have a drop-away rest so I went with helical vanes. I have normally shot feathers, but went with vanes this time because of their being more versatile. I don't have to worry about getting 'em wet, I can easily re-use them if I shoot a deer etc. I'll try them for a while, if I'm not satisfied, I'll just get out the ol' jo-jan and fletch me up some with feathers.

Still shoot alum. because they are straighter. But, still get picked on at the bow shop

yeah, me too...folks are like "You ain't shootin carbon???"

I went to ACC's because we used to hunt south Texas and shoot Havalinas and the arrow would go through them and bounce of the ground and when we found the arrows they were still straight. Aluminum wouldn't do that. That is the only reason that I switched. I've killed a hell of alot of deer with aluminum, not a thing wrong with them the archery shops just carry more carbon because they can make more money on them.

Easton 2213's aluminum all day long!

I got several dozon of different types of Aluminum arrows that I will part with if someone want to by them.

I will check the sizes if anybody e-mails me.
