+1 on Dewey coated rods and Lucas bore guides.
The newer rods have better bearings and you can get dewey to make extensions to have the handle out past the end of the butt to avoid the monte carlo issue. Their plastic coating is 2-3x as thick as Bore Techs and will not peel.
Had 6 Bore Tech rods that the coating totally peeled off. Took me 6 months dealing with Bore Tech to get new rods (which I immediately sold) back after I sent them in.
Forget carbon fiber, I have seen too many issues with carbon fiber arrows to have my hands pushing them!!!!
