azhuntnut Report post Posted June 28, 2017 I have been shooting the blue selects since they came out with great success. I have some reds, but never shot them yet. They are a little heavier than the blues and a little less straight. I doubt you would know the difference. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidkucharik Report post Posted June 28, 2017 I guess I should add....As of now myself and my youngest son are sharring arrows. So its now time to shoot separate arrows. Im shooting 273-275 FPS with 70LB draw, with 29 inch arrows and I believe 28- 30 draw length... My son is shooting 172 FPS same length arrow, 19 -20 inch draw length and a 50LB draw We are both using 100 GR muzzy's. I was looking at the RED's, but was told at the archery shop they aren't much better than the Gold Tip Hunter XT's. And that My son should be shooting a long arrow probly the 250 XT's, and I should be at the 350 XT's.... They are half the price, but half the quality?? Ive shot Beemans, Red Heads, and Easton Storms. What I need is good flight and heavy penetration for both bows..... I like the looks and reviews of the Maxima Red Mathews edition, but feel its not what would work best for both of us.Plus that's probly the sexiest looking arrow available!!! ( and no, I'm not going to shoot an arrow on pure sexualness.....but it had to be said!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest oneshot Report post Posted June 29, 2017 Arrow spine is prob off for both of your bows, go to rep archery shop/check spine charts for correct arrows for each bow..and get your draw length measured also... Arrow flight beats 'sexy" everyday... Gold-tip expeditions have never let me down... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave King Report post Posted June 29, 2017 Maxima Reds are the same price as the Gold Tip Pro Hunter. The Pro Hunter is the superior arrow of the two. Maxima Red: .0025 straightness +/- 1gpi Pro Hunter: .001 straightens +/- .5gpi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creed_az_88 Report post Posted June 29, 2017 I'm shooting black eagles also. Very accurate and inexpensive compared to the carbon express stuff. I shot carbon express maxima hunters for years and I feel I'm slightly more accurate with the black eagles although I have to really on my game to notice a difference.
