3 Great Arrows for Hunters

By Meredith Berg , last updated February 16, 2012

Ever since man developed the ability to express himself, the importance of an effective arrow has been carved, painted, or otherwise exalted, and for good reason. While society has moved away from the hunter-gatherer existence, hunting game for sport and supplies has endured. The bow and arrow hearkens back to our roots, and archers require the very best in their equipment to be successful. There are a myriad of choices on the market for the intrepid hunter. Here are three great arrows for hunters that you should consider.

Gold Tip

The biggest concern when it comes to arrows is wear and tear. A flimsy or inexpertly made arrow can lose its straightness after as little as one use. Worse, an unsatisfactory arrow can break upon impact. You need an arrow with longevity and toughness, something that you can depend on. Gold Tip has developed Smart Carbon Technology, which ensures that each arrow is deadly accurate every time, shot after shot, for reliability and precision. One of Gold Tip's most popular arrows is the XT Hunter. A favorite for hunters of deer, the performance and accuracy of these arrows is designed for the woods bowhunter. This arrow can be found at Gold Tip’s web store starting at $94.99 per dozen.

Allen Company

Often at the top of reviewer lists, the Pro Series Carbon Arrows from Allen Company are reliable and smart. Allen Company uses true helical fletching to improve the flight of the arrow. The high carbon content shaft means the arrow is strong, and is guaranteed to be straight within 0.006 inches of perfect. Allen Company has a laudable reputation as a result of the great care they take in crafting their arrows. The entire Allen Pro Series uses individually injected molded vanes. A 36-pack costs $167.99, which is a great deal for a full set.

Striving to be the number one company for all your hunting needs, Allen Company also provides fantastic options for accessories, like the Broadhead Hip Quiver to carry your arrows, Shooting Star Lighted Arrow Nocks to help you find your arrows in the dark, and burlap target faces like the Whitetail Dee Broadside target, which will last over 4,000 shots.

Cajun Archery

The deer and game hunters get most of the attention in the bowhunting world, but hunting for fish with a bow and arrow is a popular, and exciting, sport as well. Cajun Archery specializes in bowfishing, and provides high-quality arrows for hunters of fish. Recently, Cajun Archery debuted their improved Piranha and Piranha Long Barb bowfishing tips, which feature a strong, robust spring steel barb to help give your arrow traction after spearing the soft flesh of a fish. Another important feature is that these tips are resistant to corrosion, a serious concern when hunting in water. Their arrows are also strong enough to be effective against scaly and tough-skinned fish. Well-known for creating the arrows that have reeled in record-breaking fish, Cajun Archery continues to improve upon an already sterling reputation.
