Bit of a dilema with me at the mo. Am almost certainly upgrading my limbs at the beginning of the indoor season. This will mean a change of arrows anyway. Was planning on upgrading to A/C/E's from my triples as i do so, but can barely afford those, yet alone a second set of ali arrows, but if i trash too many shiney A/C/E's indoors then it would have been cheaper buying ali's!!!!!

I may also see if i can get away with my underspined triples till the end of the indoor season. Not ideal at all, as they'll be a spine too weak, but we shall see.....

.....just a thought, but you could put larger fletchings on those triples and put pin nocks in, the extra weight would effectively stiffen them a little. Alternatively, wind your poundage down until they spine right, or add some brass nocking points which will slow your string down.

I use Navigators outdoors and 2315's indoor.
Being a compounder I need that extra line cutting to nab that baby X ring in the FITA round. Plus they group better and are much nicer to shoot being so heavy.
I wish I could shoot them for FITA as well.

You could, although you might sacrifice one or two points

Sigh. Yeah. Need a 90m indoor range so I can shoot FITAs with my tree trunks.

If you are grouping tight enough to worry about trashing your new ACEs, you're not putting arrows outside of the 7. So just shoot at 3-spots, and all your worries are gone.

Can any one help i use ACC arrows outside and x7 inside. The nocks are different sizes one thin one thick, should i use different strings with different nocking points for the different arrows as the x7 have opened the two up the ACC now can move 2/3mm or does anyone make nocks to fit both arrow sizes that are the same thickness?

I shoot nav's outdoors and XX75's indoors.
If I could afford to, I would shoot ACE's indoors & out.
But because I tend to break arrows indoors, i'd rather not shoot carbons which is the only reason.

You can get various sizes of nock. So just get nocks for both arrows that will fit the string.
