I’ve been shooting the Carnivores year round for three years with no issues.

Zombie Slayers are very tough arrows, the Carnivores are lighter so they might be better for 3D, they have a thinner wall so they aren't going to be as tough. For hunting I would go with the Zombie Slayers.

 

I chose the carnies for 3D last year and am pretty happy with them. They are not as durable as Gold Tips in my experience. Any glancing contact from another arrow risks the integrity of them. I run nock inserts and bounced an arrow off the insert causing the rear to split on three arrows. I simply don't shoot groups any more unless past 40 yards. They fly awesome and are pretty speedy out of my 60lb bow. I took the carnies over the slayers due to the weight difference only. I am going to PS23's this year for 3D so over all I am very happy with the BE arrows. BTW I took the split open arrows back to my dealer and BE warranted the entire dozen, no questions asked.

 

Isn’t the weight difference only .1gpi?

That's probably what ill do is use Carni for 3D and Zombie for hunting. Good advice guys!

 

Can’t go wrong with them that’s for sure ... our local store has 400’s carni’s for 5.96 a piece and some 350 Slayers for the same thing just to move them out of the store

I’ve been shooting Zombie Slayers for more than 2 years now. Never had an issue with them whatsoever! :wink::thumbs_up

 

Black eagles are light gpi for spine which makes them less durable. I accept this and use the carnivores for target application and zombies for hunting. The carnivores have been more durable than the zombies for me but I like the extra weight for hunting.

 

yeah I keep hearing that they usually splinter around the nock, have you had this issue?

 

Yes I have, but only from another arrow hitting it in that location. Like I said in an earlier post though, I just quit shooting groups under 40 ish yards and the problem completely went away - tells you my shooting ability!!!

 

I shoot the Carnivores for hunting and 3D and my paper Bowhunter league. I shoot the the Magnums for local Vegas/FITA style tourney's... I love them!!!

 

I shot the 400 carnivores for years for 3d and hunting also, thought I wanted to go a little heaver for hunting. Got some 400 zombies. Don't no if it is in these old eyes ,but thought I was seeing a little funny stuff out of them at times, so I went to the zombie 350's and very satisfied with them. No issues with them braking ,unless I shoot for groups and hit the back ends. Very good arrows

 

I switched to Zombie slayers last year, sent 2 through deer and one through a privacy fence on accident with zero damage. Only damage I've done to one is when i stacked arrows and caused a little damage on the shaft at the nock.

 

I shot the Carnivores for a few years, even used them in Africa. They are a great shooting arrow, very accurate, but not nearly as durable as the Axis arrows I shot before, so my last batch of arrows I decided to go back with the Axis. I also wanted a heavier arrow. I would expect the Zombies to be just as accurate, but more durable. I liked the Carnies. I just busted through them hunting a lot faster than others I’ve shot.

I've been shooting BE carnivores for hunting and 3D. I've had great luck with them in both applications.

 

In the last year, I have sold nearly 50 dozen Zombie Slayers and have had zero complaints! They are what I hunt with also, and am very happy with them!

You will read posts of carnivores being horrible but I have used them for years with zero issues. I switched to them from victory hv shafts which were brittle as icicles.

I wouldn't shoot the Zombie Slayers just for the name...….lol. It's a little to shake weighty!

 

I hear you, can't stand the name or the graphics. But the specs are hard to beat. So I shoot them.

 

I have shot them two years now only issues have been self inflicted. Shooting groups gets expensive.
