Carbon Express Maxima Arrows
#602156 - 07/31/08 04:41 PM

Does anyone know of anybody that carries these arrows in the 150's???? Everyone sells the 250 & 350's but the Misses needs 150's.

They are for the Misses. She's only up to 45 lbs, but working her way towards 47-48.

Thanks BP

Any idea how many FPS she's getting from that bow? 150's seem way to lite to generate enough KE.

No Ben, I do not. I just went through the works sheet on Carbon Expresses website for a hunting arrow selection. The 150's is what I ended up with.

Has she used the 150's on deer before?? I know that you posted a pic of a nice buck she shot a few years ago, did she use those arrows to take him down? IMO, it just seems like 6.3 gr/in wouldn't have the spine to hold up on a marginal shot, like a shoulder shot I would make sure that she uses a fixed blade head

Take her to the bow shop and have shoot through a chrono to figure out arrow speed. Then use this:

Formula for kinetic energy: (Total arrow grain weight) divided by (450,435) multiplied by (speed of bow) X (speed of bow).

Ben would the CARBON EXPRESS chart not be right?


PS I just saw your Canada hunt last year on Primetime the other day! Nice job!

I would think it would be correct. My thoughts are that you may be able to generate more KE with a heavier shaft.

I appreciate your comment on the hunt for HS. We were in a beautiful area which made my job a lot easier. I have 2 more hunts being televised in the upcoming weeks on another network. Direct TV MAN channel, the show is On the Right Track. There's a archery elk hunt and the following week is a muzzleloader mule deer hunt. Airs Thursday nights during the Mathews block if you want to check it out.

So Ben when Rob said that he saw your Canada hunt does that mean you were on the other end of the camera and got to hunt? Can you only get those shows with Direct TV or are they avalable on cable also? I would love to see them!

Steve,
The hunt Lip is talking about I was behind the camera. Mitch Hagen is the hunter. I'm assuming he seen it on PrimeTime 12 DVD, I don't think that episode has aired on HS Outdoors yet, but will sometime this year.
The other hunts I mentioned for On the Right Track can only be seen on Direct TV on the MAN channel 608.(maximum adventure network)

PT

She has a 24" draw and Pulls 47 lbs behind a Mathews DXT. I'm looking to get her a Carbon Express Arrow and the CE chart tells me Maxima 150's. However I'm jus tlooking for the best arrow for her to shoot.

Steve, Ben is right, I'm talking about his hunt with Mitch Hagen. I saw it on Hunter Specialties Prime Time 12. I have been buying that series since #9 and I think it is one of the better videos out there.

Lip,

IMHO i think that 6.3 gr/in is not effective enough because i just don't think that the arrow would penetrate enough if she is shooting mechanicals or if it is a marginal shot. I think that she should switch to Beman. The chart says the model is "flash" and it didn't say on the chart what the actual make is but if you look at the chart, she would be shooting a 7.0 gr/in arrow. I personally think that someone shouldn't shoot an arrow that is less than like 7.3 gr/in but some people have no choice. All arrow companies are different and that is just my .02
