Easton[R] Offers Fat-Free Carbon Shafts

Easton[R]'s new ST Axis carbon arrows are the first to incorporate their patent-pending Slim Technology (ST) and the new Hidden Insert Technology (HIT) component system. Slim Technology produces an ultra-small-diameter carbon arrow designed just for bowhunters. ST Axis arrows fly virtually unaffected by crosswinds, translating into better accuracy and penetration. ST Axis shafts also incorporate Hidden Insert Technology (HIT) to further improve accuracy, particularly with fixed-blade broadheads. The HIT component system puts the critical broadhead interface directly against the ID of the shaft, which allows you to easily achieve perfect broadhead alignment every time. ST Axis shafts are available in sizes 300, 340, 400, and 500. Contact: Easton Technical Products, Inc., 5040 West Harold Gatty Dr., Dept. BHM, Salt Lake City, UT 84116; (801) 539-1400; www.eastonarchery.com.

Made of machined 6061 aluminum, it weighs 3 ounces and features Realtree[R]'s Hardwoods HD Green camouflage. Contact: Schaffer Performance Archery, 1403 East Cliff Road, Dept.

No Trace[TM] Archery Coat Controls Scent While Keeping You Cool

Part of Red-On's new Indian Summer Line of lightweight clothing, the No Trace[TM] Archery Coat has an odor-trapping chemical permanently imbedded in its 60/40 brushed cotton/polyester fabric, letting you get close to game without being detected.
