I’ve been playing with them as well. I’ve been using ethics parts. They fly good for me. They are pretty durable. For the price i like them.

 

I have 2 sets from accmos arrows.
One set of 12 in 300 spine for my compound.
Love them so far. I was bare shaft tuning and put a twist in the cable and launched my next shot into some 3/4” plywood. The arrow was fine. Il post a picture when I can.

the other set of 6 is for my recurve in 700 spine

they have been good as well.

 

I wouldn’t. That’s one area I don’t skimp on is arrows. I just wouldn’t feel safe every time I pulled back and shot.

Same here. No way. No how!!!

 

I just ordered 2 dozen Sharrow shafts from amazon. It was $46 shipped. Haven't gotten them yet. My plan is to learn how to build arrows on the cheap shafts, and if I can get them to fly well I'll keep them for backyard shooting.

 

I check my arrows after hitting objects and I check my nocks regularly.
Spine is spine
And most companies get their carbon from overseas.
These shafts have been used by others on this sight to hunt hogs I’m pretty sure they will work on deer as well.

 

Actually they have some great arrows out that you can get.
Consistent spine's and 3k carbon with .001 straightness.
Pretty cheap, great arrows and you can buy ethic's ect.
Upgrades and fletch them yourself and make some really good arrows at half the cost.
They have some other arrows out called x10 I have heard great things about them and they come complete but 200 bucks a dozen.
Arrows coming out now are way better than before, you just have to shopp around.
If you like building arrows.

 

I have been using accmos components and they have been good with the 100gr brass inserts.
Just broadhead tuned yesterday.

 

I've had customers bring them in for me to build. I've built about 4 dozen from Ali-Express. Every dozen has had a few arrows that we couldn't get to fly with broadheads but flew ok with field points.

Further inspection showed inconsistent spine in every case. If you can live with having 4 arrows out of a dozen that you can't hunt with, then these arrows might be for you. I personally would not trust them to shoot out of my bow. I understand price doesn't guarantee quality.... but it is a pretty solid indicator.

 

Ever time I look at them I get the suspicion they’re some name brands run offs that didn’t make spec. The factory just slaps there logo on them. I could be wrong but not willing to find out I guess.

 

I don't cheap out on arrows, it's the business end of the whole set up.

 

I have some experience with Amazon arrows. My general feeling is that even if a company makes good arrows, for some reason the models or lots that end up on Amazon are not great.

I'll probably post a review sometime, but if you want cheap arrows and shafts, I can recommend Skylon. They seem to be popular in Europe and Australia more. They are hard to come by in the states, but I've ordered from UK and Canada. About $35 per dozen for a standard diameter 6 thousandths straightness shaft. Weight consistency is very impressive at about + or - 1 grain per dozen (although different bags will vary from each other). Once I spin them, cut off the worst end and spine align, they shoot really well. I'm using in different configurations for indoor target and outdoor 3d and TAC arrows. Really light at 5.8 GPI for 500, 7.4 GPI for 400 and 7.6 GPI for 350 spine.

Shipping adds some to the final cost, but I usually order 2 dozen at a time and I couldn't get arrows of this quality for this price from a more mainstream manufacturer.

I'm all about saving a buck or two when I can, but arrow cost is about as minimal as you can get in this sport. A dozen arrows will last the average hunter a lifetime. I still have, and use about 7 or 8 Carbon Express arrows from a dozen I bought in the 90's. Unless you are into target and need arrows to suit different needs (which if so, you probably want the straightest you can get), buy a dozen quality shafts from a reputable company and call it good.

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the cheap arrows as I have no experience with them, but you may consider how often you will be buying arrows and the breakdown of the actual cost.

 

Tried a couple of those amazon arrows a friend gave me. I built them, shot them at a 3d event and gave them back afterwards. Even after trimming, squaring n nock tuning they still grouped like crap. Not to mention it took 3 bigger guys than I to pull em out of the foam! (I’m 5’10 215lbs)! Embarrassing when 1 arrow holds the entire line over and over again!
It’s like buying dollar store brand and expecting quality! Ain’t gonna happen!

 

I have bunch accmos and linkboy arrows both have worked good.my current set up not using them but still hang on to em

 

I bought these way back when I first got into archery. They were actually pretty good. Held up to a lot of abuse, flew as straight as I was able to do at that time. Plus if I did break one, I didn't feel devastated over losing a 20$ arrow.

 

Ya, I just cannot skimp on arrows either. In fact I keep going the other way with my arrows. The price just continues to rise. Sheez, currently shooting Easton Axis 5mm Match Grade shaft's, Goldtip field points, Nocturnal nocks, One stringer wraps, and blazer vanes. I shoot most everyday so it makes it easier to stomach the cost. My hunting arrow is the same arrow but replace the $1.00 field point with a $10.00 broadhead.

Sorry, but I don't shoot cheap bullets either. What for, I want the business end of my tools to hit their mark, not a random miss.

 

I have been shooting VAPs for several years but I am down to 8 arrows left. Took a look at buying another dozen. I can buy a used car or a 55" smart TV for the price of a dozen VAPs. I just sold my fathers 15 year old Chrsyler with 70,000 miles for $300. I live on S.S. and cannot spend that kind of money on what is now a hobby.

I bought 2 dozen ACCMOS .500 spine .003 strightness. One dozen fletched and one unfletched. The fletched dozen came with target points, pin nock adapters and pin nocks for $48. The fletched arrows came with stright fletch on arrows. I fletched the other dozen with Heat vanes with helical fletch. Both dozen has pin nocks and same target points. I realize that ACCMOS is made in China, but my VAPs are made in Mexico.

Since archery tournaments die out once the temperature hits 100 degrees in Arizona, I have time to play. I shot both ACCMOS arrows along with my VAPs.The VAPs are very close to my ACCMOS in diameter and weight. Out to 60 yards, I saw no difference in groups. Between 60 and 100 yards, I started seeing the straight fletched ACCMOS arrows leaving the group. At 80 to 100 yards the ACCMOS arrows with heat helical vans out grouped the VAPs. I believe that it might have to do with the VAPs being so old and so used.

Will I use the ACCMOS this summer at the NFAA Nationals? Today I will shoot them against my ACCs and then my Victorys VForce .001. This will be harder as the arrows don't match in diameter and weight, but do in spine.

 

I don’t get the random miss theory. I’m going to shoot my arrows with broadheads before putting them in my quiver if they don’t fly right I will put in the small amount of work to make them fly with the rest.
I had to do the same with my gold tip xt hunters.

 

You can get a dozen Gold Tip Hunters for around $60 cut to size from sellers on eBay. You'll need to fletch which is easy. These aren't top of line by any measure but they good quality, fairly rugged and consistent from a prominent archery OEM. If do you job they'll hit the middle at 20 yards or 80 yards.

Personally, I haven't had to throw one out due to warping, or weight, or whatever.

I certainly understand being on a budget. I guess if you're shooting lower poundage bow an off brand arrow is less of a risk but I certainly wouldn't want an arrow to explode on me.

 

I like em but keep ruining them so glad they are cheap.

 

I have both the Amazon cheap carbon shafts and some Golt Tip Hunter 500s. There is no perceivably difference between these arrows. Points and nocks are interchangeable. They group well within specks so if you don't have a fletching jig go for the Amazons.

 

No, I have not.

 

I tried a dozen for my recurve. Not sure what brand they were but never flew consistently so I gave them away.
