    New Arrows What Happened?

    Just got half dozen new Gold Tip XT 5575s. Same length, weight,balance point and vane size. Checked and rechecked.
    The new ones hit about one inch low and two inches left from the old ones. Traded out field points, checked and rechecked mixed and matched I don't know. Any ideas.
    Mathews SQ2 62lbs. Draw 29 inch Haven't changed anything just new arrows.

      vanes positioned correctly?
      did you check the weight of each arrow compared to your older ones?

                          Got new arrows Monday. They said the nocks had a factory defect. If you look close they were curved toward the index side, it look like the mold was off. They found several when they stated looking through the bag, once I saw it it was easy to see with nocks pulled out. Same arrows new nocks shoot great.

                            On each package of Gold Tips there is a weight range. You can get the next dozen in the same weight range.
                            If there is a difference in the weight there can be a difference in the spine and impact point.
                            As you noticed, they may group well, just not with another set of arrows from a different weight range.
                            All manufactures can be this way but not note it on each package.
