VX carbon

We have been trying our best to order our VX material. Our suppliers have been delaying as much as possible. We have searched 2 other suppliers who cant get the exact specifications we are looking for.

We have the material on back order and are waiting on it. We have several limb orders waiting on this upgrade option and we can only appologise to those waiting.

These orders will get priority when the material arrives. Which has been qouted to be next week for the past 1 1/2 months.

Some of you have been waiting for some time now. please feel free to contact us if your having concerns and we will do our best to help, but for those that are happy to hold on, we will start putting some extra pressure on our suppliers and see if we can get them to get a move on

Thanks for the patience of all those involved.

Unhappy I see bad weather predicted.

Hello Sid,
have you still well in memory. I am pleased with finding you here in this forum.

I have also VX ordered. I hope that everything will work well.
Meanwhile just my Swift must work.
Of course the short Ultra would have been better to me.

All good

Maybe you need to tell them that you can deliver arrows a LOT!!! quicker than they are delivering the material, and that if you have to wait much longer that you can arrange a demonstration for them and as VIP's. Of course they will have a front row seat just in front of the boss.

If that doesn't speed them up tell them you have lots of friends who want to give them a demonstration of thier accuracy in placing the order ( arrow) on target and promptly.


Good luck getting it all sorted out Sid.

VX carbon is our upgrade option.
Have you tried our old TXG, or TXBs?

The torsional stiffness in the TX40 (old) laminate has been added to with the CXC laminate by about 40% but we are looking at a 60% increase over that with the VX upgrade.

It Does depend on the model. But the VX will add no more weight to the mass of the limb over the CXC so all you gain is stiffness. The CXC makes a pair of limbs that is about 150-200grains lighter than the Inno if you exclude the limb butt, from what we have measured.

I must say, we use our own names like XP, CXC, TX40, Hyperflex, VX, just to protect our intelectual advancements.
