can't help you as far as a comparison but i shot the Maxima Hunters last season and i loved them. VERY TOUGH arrows! shot very consistant and i got great penetration ( pass throughs ) on the 3 deer i shot last year.
just an off the wall comment, i won some of the Carbon Express lighted nocks and they were complete junk. out of 6, 4 didnt work straight out of the package. i only have one that still works. if i had paid for them i would have been extremely pissed.
