The Raptor™ .005 by Evolusion Arrows® is a standard diameter, pure carbon hunting shaft.

The .005 or better straightness graded Raptor™ is a proven performer at an entry-level price.

Its is a pure carbon arrow with no glass filler material like many other arrows on the market, in the same price-point.
So it's stronger and offers a superior 'matched' dozen.

This shaft is fast becoming the 'go-to' for both bow-hunters and 3D shooters.

  • Bowhunters can have the perfect hunting arrow with high FOC using Raptor shafts - the 300 spine arrow being the standout choice for this scenario.
  • 3D archers who want to shoot a 5 gpp arrow will appreciate the 'light-weight' gpi characteristics of the Raptor shaft across the 350, 400, 500 and 600 spines.
  • Low-poundage shooters will love the flat-shooting 5.6 gpi 600 spine variation of the Raptor.
Sold in 12-packs.

    Quality and durability

    Purchased the Evolusion Raptor shafts .005 in 600 Spine for my wife Oct 2020 who was just starting out in Archery. The Raptor shafts are pleasantly weight matched and come with perfectly fitted Nocks and matched Inserts ready to install. They performed so well for her matched with Q2 Fusion Vanes that I happily purchased another set for her for Xmas and then had to buy another 2 sets soon after as my daughter decided to take up the sport as well and quickly stole Mum’s spare set. Daughter’s are fletched with Bohning Airs and she also couldn’t be happier with the results and how well they shoot for her. No doubt they will both be looking to upgrade to .003 shafts next purchase. I also know at least another 5 shooters that are also happy with the Evolusion Raptors in various spines and straightness and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for others. The Evolusion range availability, quality and durability not to mention the price are a winner in my book.

    Great value affordable arrow

    I bought a dozen raptor .003 shaft just before Xmas 2020. I am very impressed with the results of them for indoor and outdoor target rounds I would highly recommend this product to anyone wanting a great value affordable arrow. Only problem I have is they group too well already down 2 arrow from indoor shoots :-) here is a picture of my dilemma
