Easton Carbon One Arrow Shaft

these are the best arrows i have tried, they fly well, the wind doesn't affect them too much but they are a little fragile because once i failed a shot it and bounced on some gravel an instead of having splinters it broke in two jjust like that

I bought a half dozen 550 spine of these arrows for my upcoming competition and I could not be happier with them. I put some spin wing vanes on them and they are just so awesome. The thin shaft is so durable as well! I love these arrows and highly recommend them to anyone.

I shot these at a friends house and they are awesome and they work great so i might get some, but I have a quick Q. about the product. does it come with flechings, a point, and a nock, or do i have to buy these separate?

I thik the tolerances of these arrows is excellent. the weight and straightness is right on. They also group very well.

Went to these since Easton discontinued the Redlines. Wasnt sure what to expect, but im glad i have. As others have said, yes you spend more for the carbonone target points, and the pin nock system, while not necessary, does protect the back of the arrow for a small investment. Over 2 months on these arrows, shooting mostly from 30 - 100 yards, and there isnt a bad arrow of the 12... That to me is pretty cool to be able to grab any arow out of the quiver and have 100% confidence. If you are looking for a good target shaft without dropping big bucks, i highly recommend these.

I just recently started shooting these arrows and I'm surprised at how these things performed, especially in the wind. These arrows make me look like a real pro. My grouping has shrunk considerably. I'm happy that I started using these arrows. My confidence has improved to the point I can't wait to practice the next day.

I've been happily shooting Easton X7s for over a decade, but wanted to give carbon technology a try... especially for better grouping at distance events. I contacted a couple of industry gurus and the Carbon One 410 was consistently recommended as THE arrow to beat for quality and value. I also bought the DVD on everything about carbon arrows (highly recommend). For distance shooting, keeping carbon arrow weight low is essential. I chose Fletch Flex 187 shield vanes, Easton G nocks (no inserts), and 120 grain points (I removed 2 sections for 100 gr. total) and Cool Flex adhesive. Carbon arrows do require more care and patience during assembly and it is necessary to understand arrow FOC balance to dial in the tip weight (I found 10% FOC ideal). I now have a dozen long-distance rockets that group surprisingly well at 60 yards and beyond. The small diameter shaft, miniature vanes, and low arrow mass virtually ignore normal wind speeds. Carbon arrows would not be my first choice indoors, but used outdoors at distance, the Carbon One is truly impressive.

This is the first time I've used a carbon arrow. I used to be an all aluminum arrow fan, however I saw from this web site an affordable yet accurate carbon arrow so what the heck, I gave it a try and its performance amazed me. Aside from smaller groups it can take hitting concrete and wood ( which can be a plus for less consistent shooters like myself).

I've always been a little afraid of all carbon arrows for target shooting. But now I'm impressed with the performance off the carbonone. I would tell a friend to go ahead and buy it because it works. The small diameter and the tolerances are great for tighter groups. Even in the wind.

Wanted to try an affordable skinnier shaft with decent specs for long distance dots (I.e. 60-80 yards). The Carbon One has acceptable tolerances at .003 straightness and +/- 1 gr. Easton's ACCs started out at .003, so this arrow will suit 90+% of the target archers out there. Was pleasantly surprised with the weight variance, which was better than advertised. The Carbon One grouped well at short and long distance. They grouped so well that I decided to use these for 3D too. Keep in mind they will penetrate compared to the fat shafts a lot of 3Ders are using. So far they have been very durable and would recommend them highly. For those not wanting to spend the money on pin noc adapters, the G nock will work. The negative aspect about these shafts is that you'll sink another $30 per dozen in pin nock adapters and points. Depending on the shaft size, ACE components will work, but there is a specific Carbon One point.
