Hot melt
What is the hot melt that you use for inserts in carbon arrows . I have tried different ones with minimal success over time. The latest one is gorilla hot melt sticks from the hardware store. I have ordered some from iron will and am going to try it also.

@Jamie Robinson just curious what’s going wrong? I’ve used it quite a bit with great results

@Jamie Robinson i shoot full length too but I like to be able to orient the broadhead blades with my fletchings. that’s just me being picky though. I clean both with acetone after roughing them up with a bore brush. I was worried about failure when I started using it instead of regular hot melt but it’s been smooth sailing for about 7 years.
Final count down till opening day.
1 month till opening day of deer season here in IL! Getting the final touches done on the hunting arrows! When is everyone else's opening day? Oct 1st for me.

Let us know what you’re working with? Right or left handed? Arrow spine? Arrow length? Point weight? Bow weight? The top three look to be really weak for a righty or really stiff for a lefty but that bottom shaft doesn’t look as bad.

@Trevor Wheeler they look weak but with those specs you should be about right. If it’s a standard insert and you told me those specs I suggest about exactly that or a full length 400. I Would try a heavier point weight to make sure you’re not getting a false weak reading. It might be bouncing off the inside of the riser and showing weak when it’s actually stiff. I personally think a 400 with some weight up front will make you a better hunting arrow though
