Has anyone had any experience with the Black Eagle Instinct Traditional arrow shafts?
I have a 31 3/4" draw. Most arrows are 32" long so I tend to shoot full length shafts. I noticed that the Black Eagle Instinct Traditional arrow is 34" long and would allow for more arrow flexibility. What have your experiences been with them?

none here, but I nominate you chief Ginnie pig.
Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.

Hey getting,
I've got a 31" draw. I bought a set of SF elite ilf limbs at 34# and needed lighter spined arrows. I bought 6 BE vintage fletched from LAS. I stripped the feathers off one for bare shaft tuning. They are 34" I ended up cutting 1" off the arrows to stiffen them up some. First time I've cut a shaft, but they fly great.

Re: Black Eagle Instinct Traditional?
Thanks for the input. It seems there is a lot of people who like the vintage (standard diameter shafts 9.2gpi). I cannot find much info on the instinct shafts (micro diameter 9.4gpi) with the outserts. I find it interesting that the standard diameter shafts are lighter (less material) per inch than the micro diameter shafts
That makes me think that the instinct micro shafts must be or might be stronger and be more resilient...
I am thinking about giving them a call and seeing if they will sell me a test kit (1 arrow with outsert in the 3 most likely spine shaft). I have time to learn more about them as my new bow will not be ready till maybe early July.
