I bought the bow out of state and a second set of arrows
After the first day of sighting in. Arrow in Another Arrow
I then went with the Horton FOC arrows
and they worked very well but again lost two in pratice now have two sets in the same way and in the same target.

Attached File  9-26-11 011.JPG   719.84K   1 downloads@20 yards off rest
now i have 4 arrows lost of the 9 and 3 with fletching ripped or tore off,total of 7 gone. in three days ( but i did have a great time)
I need arrows and i have even started with broadheads yet. But was able to find everything at bass pro shop here in Peroira
this is what i have been using for the hunting season this year
NAP 170 grain broad head two blade mechanical
Easton carbon bolt POWER 10.5gpi
luminocks
the foc is only 14% next thing i am going to to try is weighted insert to gain a better FOC i like it to be over 17% but that is in the spring.
so this is what is working well for me. this year when i had the time i have taken a doe and a buck. The pics are in the gallery
But still looking for the perfect set up.

I bought my TRT UL in 2011. I use the Horton carbon bolts 20". AP070 317 grs. and AP072 with lighted nocks. I use Grim Reaper mechanical broadheads 1 3/8" cut 100 gr. The Grim Reapers are available in practice heads. I use them. If you shoot field tips they will not shoot the same as broadheads. Usually when you put the broadhead on it will shoot low and to the right. You have got to practice with the practice heads for accuracy. I'm dialed in up to 30 yds. Don't compromise buy good quality bolts. Hope this info helps you out good luck.
