Jerry,
is the Ubar for the Axis arrows that support you make for the tip to beef it up?

TEXAS

[Jerry/NJ]

No, they are the ones made by NAP I think it is.....the ones I make weigh about 5 - 6 grains

[TEXAS 10PT]

But do they basically serve the same purpose?

TEXAS

[Jerry/NJ]

Yes and No.....they both protect the very end or tip but the one I make protects or strengthens the whole 1/2" of shaft area before the insert which IMO is the weak part of the arrow so adding this sleeve reinforces it.

For those who are wondering what the **** I am talking about here is a picture....;)

[TEXAS 10PT]

OK gotcha. The area between the tip and where the HIT insert begins where it is recessed in the shaft. I imagine it gives you a little better FOC as well.

TEXAS

[Jerry/NJ]

Ya know, I have never checked how much it does affect the FOC (psssst , I dont care) ;)
