Gold Tip Velocity Pro – Kauffman Custom Build

Match-Grade ±.001" Straightness. High-Velocity Lightweight Carbon. GTO Nock Protection.

Engineered for extreme arrow speed, flat trajectories at long distances, and pin-point accuracy, the Gold Tip Velocity Pro is the pinnacle of lightweight .246" standard-diameter performance. By trimming grain-per-inch weight through a lightweight 100% Smart Carbon® weave, the Velocity Pro shrinks pin gaps and increases downrange velocity without compromising structural toughness.

Laser-inspected to Gold Tip’s strictest match-grade tolerance of ±.001" straightness and weight-sorted to ±0.5 grains per dozen, these shafts come equipped with factory GTO Bushings and GTO Nocks for rear-impact defense and exact throat alignment off the string. Combined with lightweight 12.1-grain Accu-Lite inserts, the Velocity Pro serves as the ultimate engine for TAC/3D archers and bowhunters building extreme Front-of-Center (FOC) setups.

At Kauffman Custom Archery, we take raw Velocity Pro carbon through complete studio bench prep—indexing dynamic spine, diamond-squaring both ends, and hand-fletching each shaft to eliminate broadhead wobble and spin-runout.

The Kauffman Custom Studio Difference

High-speed match-grade carbon requires exact shop alignment to prevent steering flaws downrange:

• Dial-Indicator Roller Verification: Every shaft is spin-tested across precision rollers to identify the primary stiffness plane and index GTO nocks for identical flex off the string.

• Dual-End Diamond Truing: Both carbon faces are precision-squared using high-speed diamond wheels, ensuring a dead-flat 90-degree seating face for Accu-Lite inserts 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 broadhead control.

• Grain-Matched Dozen Sets: Your complete set is hand-sorted and weight-matched across the batch to guarantee point-of-impact uniformity.
