Gold Tip Kinetic Kaos – Kauffman Custom Build

.204" Small Diameter. Smart Carbon Construction. Ballistic Collar Armor. High-Kinetic Momentum.

Designed for big-game hunters seeking max penetration, wind stability, and extreme front-end structural durability, the Gold Tip Kinetic Kaos is built on Gold Tip’s heavy-duty .204" (5mm) small-diameter carbon platform. Constructed with 100% pure Smart Carbon for unmatched straightness retention and memory, the Kaos is engineered to pass through heavy bone and muscle without breaking a sweat.

Inspected to a tight ±.0025" straightness specification and weight-sorted to within ±0.5 grains per dozen, each Kaos comes equipped with Gold Tip’s Accu-Tough Insert System, GTO Nock with Bushing, and a factory-matched Ballistic Collar for maximum front-end armor during hard impacts.

At Kauffman Custom Archery, we convert raw Kinetic Kaos carbon into a rock-solid, broadhead-steering asset through rigorous studio bench prep—indexing dynamic spine, diamond-squaring both ends, and hand-fletching each shaft for broadhead stability downrange.

The Kauffman Custom Studio Difference

Small-diameter carbon equipped with front-end collars requires exact bench assembly to eliminate broadhead runout and guarantee arrow balance:

• 360° Roller Spine Indexing: We spin-test every shaft on dial-indicator rollers to pinpoint dynamic stiffness and index nocks for identical flex off the bowstring.

• Dual-End Diamond Truing: Carbon ends are precision-squared using high-speed diamond wheels, establishing a dead-flat 90-degree seating plane for Accu-Tough inserts, Ballistic Collars, and GTO bushings.

• Chemical Degreasing & Custom Hand Fletching: Shafts undergo complete solvent cleaning before receiving heavy-duty custom wraps and hand-fletched high-profile vanes (Q2i Rapt-X or AAE Max Stealth) for maximum steering control.

• Grain-Matched Dozen Sets: Your complete set is hand-sorted and weight-matched across the batch to keep your point-of-impact identical shot after shot.
