You couldn't find a better combination of beauty and strength. Gold Tip Traditional Classic XT carbon shafts feature jaw dropping beauty with their unique footed-wood grain finish. The included stainless steel inserts allow you to up your FOC (front of center) weight while still accepting Gold Tip Weights. And the ballistic collars provide incredible strength.
For those who want to use these shafts with a G or F Nock, they are compatible with Gold Tip Accu Bushings.
The skinny .204" ID (inside diameter) gives you better penetration, less wind drift, and closer center shot for easier tuning.
Accu-Tough Nocks installed. Inserts and ballistic collars included. Available in spines of 600, 500, 400, and 340 in 6-packs and dozens. Please specify.
Please Note: The Ballistic collar shortens the distance from the back of the shaft to 'back of the point' as it slides on the shaft. We recommend adding at least half an inch to your shaft if 3Rivers is to cut your shafts.
Please Note: the Gold Tip Classic and Classic XT® use an outsert that adds ½" to the overall length of the shaft. For example, if you order 30" shafts, they will be cut to 30" and the finished shaft with outsert installed will be 30½" from the valley of the nock to the end of the insert.

Cut Shafts to Length: Have your carbon arrows cut to length. The length is measured from the valley of the nock to the end of the shaft. Minimum length is 27". Tolerance for cut length is ±1/16".
Install Point Inserts: Choose this option to have our experts install your Point Inserts in your shafts. We use epoxy style adhesives on all inserts and most points. Once they are installed, they are permanent. If you want us to use different inserts or adapters (i.e. brass point inserts), please put a comment on your order during checkout referencing what item numbers to use together.
Standard Fletch: Our experienced fletchers will 3-fletch your arrow shafting with 5" shield left wing turkey feathers. The cock feather will be traditional barred and the two hen feathers will be your choice of white, yellow, red, or fluorescent lime (same color for all arrows). Hen feather color can be requested and will be fletched on a CLEAR cap wrap. No substitutions. Allow 4-7 additional business days for your order to be processed.
