Highlights

Thin shafts drift less

A slim 6.2 mm shaft presents less surface to a crosswind than a fat aluminium or fibreglass arrow, and it slides into and out of a target with far less effort. Over a long outdoor session in Dar es Salaam wind, that is the difference between a group and a scatter.

100% carbon

Stiff, light and dimensionally stable - a carbon shaft does not take a bend the way aluminium does.

6.2 mm outer diameter

The standard slim class, for less wind drift and easier target removal.

Consistent straightness

Shaft-to-shaft consistency is what actually produces a group, more than any other single factor.

Takes standard components

Normal inserts, nocks, field points and broadheads fit.

Product description

About this product

Pure Carbon Arrows High – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Tanzania.

These are full-carbon arrow shafts at 6.2 mm outer diameter, sold individually so you can buy the number you need and replace the ones you lose.

Carbon is what serious target and hunting archers shoot, for one reason above all: it does not take a permanent bend. Drop an aluminium arrow on concrete or pull it hard from a target at an angle and it stays slightly bent, and a bent arrow never flies the same again. Carbon either survives unchanged or it breaks – which sounds worse and is actually better, because a bent arrow quietly ruins your groups while you blame your form.

The 6.2 mm diameter is the common slim class. A thinner shaft catches less crosswind on the way to the target, which matters outdoors here, and it takes noticeably less effort to pull out of a foam target after a long session. It also penetrates better on game, which is why hunters have moved to slim shafts.

The single most important thing about buying arrows is matching the spine to your bow. Every arrow bends around the riser as the string pushes it, and the amount it bends has to suit your draw weight and draw length. Get it wrong and the arrow leaves the bow kicking sideways, and no amount of good shooting fixes it. Tell us your draw weight and draw length and we will match them.

Carbon has one safety rule that is not optional: inspect before every shot. Flex the shaft gently and listen for a crackle, and look for cracks or splinters. A cracked carbon arrow can shatter on release and drive splinters through your bow hand. Any arrow that has hit something hard gets checked; any arrow that crackles gets binned.

Questions

Good to know

What is arrow spine and why does it matter?

Spine is how much an arrow bends when the string pushes it. Every arrow flexes around the riser on release, and it has to flex the right amount for your draw weight and length or it will not fly straight no matter how well you shoot. Too stiff and it kicks one way, too weak the other. Tell us your bow-s draw weight and your draw length and we will match the arrow.

How long should my arrows be?

Draw your bow with an arrow on the rest and have someone mark the shaft about 2.5 cm (1 in) in front of the rest. That is your cut length. An arrow shorter than your draw is dangerous - it can come off the rest and go through your bow hand.

How do I check an arrow before shooting it?

Flex it gently and listen, and run it through your fingers. A carbon arrow that crackles, or has a crack, splinter or dent, must be thrown away - a carbon shaft that fails on release can go through your forearm. Check every arrow after it hits anything hard.

Why carbon rather than aluminium or fibreglass?

Carbon does not take a permanent bend, it is lighter for the same stiffness, and it is far more consistent shaft to shaft. Fibreglass is cheaper and fine for casual practice; aluminium bends and stays bent. For anyone shooting seriously, carbon is the answer.

Does it come with a point fitted?

Check the option selected when you order. We also stock spare field points separately, which is worth having - points work loose and get lost in grass more often than arrows break.

Can I cut them to length myself?

Carbon must be cut with an abrasive cut-off wheel, not a hacksaw or pipe cutter - anything that crushes the shaft ruins it and creates a splinter risk. Tell us the length you need and we will have them cut properly.

How many should I buy?

At least six, and a dozen if you shoot outdoors. Arrows are lost in grass, broken against each other in a tight group and occasionally shot clean over a target. Six is the minimum for a useful practice session.

Do you deliver in Dar es Salaam?

Yes. We deliver across Dar es Salaam and ship nationwide to Arusha, Mwanza, Dodoma, Zanzibar and beyond. You can also collect from our shop.
