Default Target Points - Like shopping for a car......

Looking on line for glue in 100gr. target points for my Easton Hexx 400 shafts.
Is one better than another, or are they all about the same.

These arent glue in but I use them also and are a very nice point.

Why are you using glue in on an arrow like a Hexx?

I dont know. I just assumed the less moving parts the better. I considered, to start, 6 fixed target and 6 with removable heads for broad heads.

With insert one has the freedom of changing heads/points whenever/whatever...once a glue in is in it is considered permanent...if point is damaged...and has to be replaced its quite the chore and arrow can be damaged also during process...

Insert with screw in target points for a hunting set up makes more sense IMHO

all the screw in target points are pretty much the same just the shape is different but as for quality they are the same, mass produced so some might have imperfections some don't

Thanks, considering the cost of carbon arrows - will go the way of screw in.
