Switched arrows today from Mayhems to Eastons Flatline! Gained 10fps! Love these light arrows. My Z7 was chrono today at 302fps and held tight groups!

After seeing you today, I'm wishing I hadn't gotten the Blue Streaks and got the Flatline. I didn't know these were in stock, or would have gotten a dozen of them yesterday.

I was pleased with the how light they were and strong the spine was still. They shot like missles in my opinion.

Here's my question though. Since they are that lite, how is that going to affect the kinetic energy. Will it still have enough to pass through an elk at 50 yards?

I shot the Flatlines out of my X Force. They fly and shoot great but they break easier than any arrow I have ever shot.

I'm shooting them in my GTO. I like the but my bow sure seems louder

The shafts seem stiff for a light arrow. I really like the way they flew no ocilation or porposing. The arrows were like darts. I was shooting inside so I couldnt tell if they were louder. I cant see these having less penitration. Example, A 12 gauge slug or a .454 caliber bullet will stop whatever it hits with low velocity but not very deep penitration. I high speed bullet will penitrate deeper. JMO
