A good metal detector will do the job, we very rarely lose arrows on our field and of those that do stray most are carbon/aluminium and pure aluminium arrows than pure carbons. That's mainly because there are a larger number of people shooting those arrows over pure carbons, but the carbon arrows haven't proved themselves to be proportionally harder to find, however if your club shares it's facilities with other sports, you may find it hard to convince your committee of that.
You could try backstop netting as a means of reducing the chances of losing arrows outside ?
