Time to get some outdoor arrows...

(its about arrows, ran searches but couldnt find anything - or rather so much I couldnt find an answer - I KNOW something similar is bound to be asked before but couldnt locate it - and the net gets all a little technical and my brain starts hurting)

=====================================

Ok now call me strange as I know the indoor season is about to start but...

I have been shooting my X7's as my outdoor arrows and before that ancient arrows on loan from the club house. My X7's have served me well and fly far more true than the loaners - and I will certainly be taking them indoors as my linecutters

But in my last shooting session I thought I would have a go at 80yrds as 60yrds was all good - I had never tried to hit 80 before so was a bit apprehensive.
Miss miss miss miss...you get the idea.

So I moved my sight to the bottom and wound it all the way in and again...miss miss miss...yaaawwn (de ja vu) miss etc
All 6 neatly in a clump just about 3 inches short of the target!

So I want some new arrows ... containing the magic ingredient of carbon - I dont think (could be wrong) that my sight can reverse (the cheaper option)due to the shape of the vertical bar - and to be honest...I just want some new arrows!!!!


So my question (finally - thanks for bearing with me) which arrows would you suggest I get?
Was thinking ACCs as they look like a decent mid range arrow. Is there any reason to spend that 50-70 more to get say Navigators? I am sure a 'good' archer or certainly and experienced archer would notice the difference - but as I have been on alloy from the start - would *I* notice any difference?

I hear fantastic things on the forums on virtually every type of arrow which is making arrow choice harder than I thought.

I ask as what I dont want to do is spend £130 on a dozen arrows only to wish in a few months I had bought something different.

Is it swings and roundabouts or are there really noticeable differences?
