The only carbon arrows i've seen actually shatter were the cheapest you can possibly buy from bass pro. other than those, i've never had any shatter, and i've hit a lot of trees!!!

sometimes. I've had them shatter and I've also spent the time to carve them out and after careful inspection found them to be in perfect shape and reshot them. Also had one explode when I didn't catch a cracked nock, very exciting. Key is to carefully check bolt after each shot.

Not in my experience, but the broadhead is usually trash.

i shot at a turkey last season, and lost one of my arrows, i found it stuck in a tree 3 months later, the arrow was fine.

I have hit a couple of trees. On all them I was able to turn the arrow out of the broadhead and save the arrow. I can then get the broadhead out and just replace the blades.

It depends on how hard the tree is. But the arrow should just stick in, unles their is a crack or anything break in the arrow, then it will most likely shatter. If there is a broadhead on it, the arrow will almost always just stick in the tree if its not too hard.

Depends on the angle of the arrow to the tree. A straight shot into a tree and the arrow should be fine. (check your noc) If you catch the edge of a tree it will bend your arrow and shatter it.

none of mine have shattered

depends on where you hit it, how tall it is.

Most companies recomend inspecting the arrows after each shot for cracks or dings you can slightly bend the arrow shaft buy hand if you hear or see it spliting throw it out if not further inspect the shaft to make sure and your good to go also make sure the arrows are properly spined to match the weight and draw length of bow youe shooting and most importantly have fun and live the outdoor dream!

No, the tree should be fine. :)

(But the arrow is history)

I've never seen one shatter from a tree. I have seen one hit a tree and unscrew the broadhead. The arrow was on the ground and the broadhead was stuck in the tree.
