Does anyone know what the difference is between these two arrows? I do realize the name is different and the graphics are different but all the specs look the same. I am wondering if i am missing something. I could really do without a single word or design on my arrow shafts so i don't really care about that. Deflection and gpi would be enough. Really just the deflection would suffice in case i am shooting with others. I wonder how much we pay for graphics. I really wish someone would offer arrows without all the crap on them.
Easton Hexx and Da Torch

Shaft is the same Heex has no uni bushing and H nock, Da Torch has a uni and X nock.
I was told by a Easton person the carbon is a whole new design, thicker wall than a light speed very precise .001 straightness.
I know someone shooting 480 very accurate at long distance. I am going to try some 330 with 75 grain insert and 100 grain broadhead and helical blazer.
I will try the Hexx first.

This. The Hexx uses an H nock and Da Torch uses a X nock. Two different diameter arrows.
I didn't see the diameter as being different on their website. Could have swore both showed 9/32. Maybe i am full of it tho. Thanks for the info. Also, congrats on the experience. I am keeping my insanity but i did get to shoot the experience on sunday and i really really liked it and the name is appropriate. It was a great experience honestly.

Same diameter. Torch has bushing with x nock, hexx has no bushing and h nock. Same arrow. Hexx is cheaper since it doesn't have all the graphics. Sweet arrows, spin as straight as my gold tips.

Where are you getting 75 grain inserts for these shafts? I see Easton lists an optional brass insert for the Hexx and Da Torch, but its nowhere to be found on their website.

Are they Easton inserts, or are they from another manufacturer?

I'm going with the hex simply because I dislike Michael waddell and think the graphics are ugly.....

I like the specs on the Hexx... Looking through the '13 Easton catalog, I pay attention as to which shafts are still made in the USA. Fortunately, the majority of Easton carbons are listed as American... Re: the Hexx, though, no info is listed. Not to hijack, but anyone have any info? I'm liking the Hexx, Bloodline and Aftermath...

According to Lancaster, the brass break off inserts are the beman HP brass inserts. They are found on the beman catalog and on three rivers archery site. Just what I was told will work.

Beman's catalog has the 75/50gr brass break off inserts, so does three rivers archery. Beman HP brass inserts.

I have the datorch's in 330 spine with firenock nocks an av3 they are penetrating almost 4 inches more than my gt pro hunters in 300 spine and that's into a brand new rhinehart woodland buck.Now before people get carried away with the babblin on Michael waddel...Look at it this way if easton confronted you with a contract deal $$$$$and would be a nice arrow if not the most consistent hunting arrow out you aren't going to run with it???The graphics are infused like in the arrow and I love them fletched and nocked right they pop at you.
