An earlier post got me thinking...What would be your perfect carbon shaft?
Mine would be a Gold Tip, .204 ID, 9 GPI, with their light colored wood grain all the way to the front, the back 7" would be factory white. You could let the back white or color it with just one coat of cap dip for other colors. They would come in .340, .360 and .380 :bigsmyl:

My optimized shaft would be a standard size...permit a front load of 400 gns...Ultra-EFOC...approximately 615 gns total...+/- .003 straightness...durable.
Would estimate a Black Eagle Carnivore 350 w/6.8 gpi max. Note: would prefer an even lighter shaft if possible.
Shot this setup for years with Victory HV's until they were discontinued....612 gn total...
Could bare shaft extremely well at 25 yards in relatively hi winds.
Was extremely hard on targets.
A shaft that doesn't break and you can't lose. :thumbsup:
Yep! first of all indestructible and unable to be lost!
After that, very light gpi so I can load up the front, skinny diameter, tapered, built in chartreuse cap that just happens to be the exact length of my preferred brace height for whatever bow I am shooting
sound just about perfect.
34 inch long, skinny, taper so that foc is built in, standard nock size, and capable of being footed with 2 inches of xx75. And no funny inserts which necessitate a special broadheads or point.
