I've searched the forum and elsewhere and it seems that Easton Helios are made for HuntersFriend.com. The result is there isn't much info out there.

I can buy half dozen for $35 and Helios Pro for $60. I'm relatively new. My initial order was 6 helios and I'm down to 3 arrows. It's time to have a plan going forward for practice and hunting. I like the idea of practicing with cheaper arrows and switching to the Helios Pro late summer heading in to hunting season.

Anyone have any experience with Helios or Helios Pro for hunting deer? How much different from Axis?

Also, I'll take any recommendations on where to buy arrows online. No local options and not ready to build my own yet.

50# draw weight, 28.5 draw length. For this year, focus is deer hunting.

I'm shooting the regular Helios that I got from HuntersFriend.com , they've been good arrows so far. I haven't sent them through an animal yet, I bought them one spine stiffer than normal so I could run some 150 grain VPA 3-Blade for an elk setup but didn't get drawn this year. I've been playing with the new heavier arrows/head and have been shooting them a lot. So far they've been very accurate and for the price they sell for right now on HuntersFriend I couldn't pass them up.
