Press Release & NewsFeraDyne Outdoors — Superior, WI — May 2026
Carbon Express® proudly congratulates pro archer James "Jimmy" Lutz on his victory at the 2026 APX Championship hosted by Archery Pro Extreme, where he topped a highly competitive field, defeating Mathias Fullerton and Louis Price to claim the title.
Coming off his recent world-record performance, Lutz continues to build momentum in the 2026 season — further establishing himself as one of the premier competitors in field archery today.
The Equipment Behind the Win
Lutz secured the championship shooting Carbon Express Nano PRO® RZ 350 arrows — the brand's premier compound field archery arrow — paired with a TruFire® Rivet release. Together, this setup delivered the precision, consistency, and confidence needed to perform at the highest level on an international stage.
"Jimmy is shooting with incredible confidence right now. Wins like this — against top-tier competition — show exactly who he is as a competitor. We're proud to support him with equipment he trusts, and even more proud of how he's representing himself and our team."
— Zach Godwin, Brand Manager, Carbon Express
What Is the Carbon Express Nano PRO® Platform?
The Nano PRO® platform represents Carbon Express's most advanced arrow engineering, purpose-built for the demands of field archery competition. Two models anchor the lineup:
- Nano PRO® RZ — designed for compound shooters competing in field archery
- Nano PRO® X-Treme — engineered specifically for recurve archers
Both are optimized for long-range accuracy, repeatability, and control across varying distances and conditions — exactly what field archery demands at the elite level.
The Technology That Wins Championships
The Nano PRO® arrows are built on three proprietary Carbon Express technologies that separate them from anything else on the market:
Tri-Spine Weight Forward™ Technology
Isolates dynamic flex to a controlled center "Red Zone," allowing the arrow to recover faster and stabilize more quickly in flight. Less oscillation means more consistent impact — especially at distance.
360° Spine Technology
Ensures uniform stiffness around the entire shaft, eliminating weak-side bias and delivering consistent, repeatable performance regardless of how the arrow is nocked. Every shot flies the same.
Laser-Sorted, Weight-Matched Precision
Every arrow is individually measured and matched before it leaves the factory, reducing variables and delivering unmatched consistency from shot to shot. No surprises at the line.
Together, these technologies produce a more stable, predictable arrow flight — minimizing oscillation, improving downrange accuracy, and giving archers the confidence to execute under pressure when the competition is at its toughest.
Available Worldwide This Month
Lutz's victory at the APX Championship reinforces the strong return of Carbon Express to elite competition and highlights the brand's commitment to supporting world-class athletes with best-in-class equipment.
The Nano PRO® RZ (compound field) and Nano PRO® X-Treme (recurve field) will be available worldwide later this month through authorized dealers.
Carbon Express congratulates Jimmy Lutz and the entire Carbon Express Pro Staff on an outstanding performance and continued success in the 2026 season.
