Have a question regarding spine selection for aluminum arrow. I have a new to me 2014 super kodiak with a fast flight string. I draw 29 inches and have 30 inch 500 spine xx75 gamegetters. Would the 500 spine arrows work or would I need to jump up a arrow spine because of the fast flight string? Thanks in advance.

draw weight?
Oops 50#
I suspect those might be too weak, I'd probably jump up a size.
2116's.....depends on point weight...500s are fine ...with 125s up front...shoot 175-225 up front... (which I do)...a loong 400 may be better...
I shoot an original 67 1/2 Super Kodiak....45#....it LOVES 600 SPINE carbons with 125 gr up front....

If you have the bow and arrows, why not shoot them? Or did I miss something here?
Blackstick I have 500 spine shot them and they felt good but there is a bit of a noise was just wondering with the fast flight string if it would be beneficial to go up a spine in aluminum arrows. I have shot wooden arrows which are a bit heavier and the bow quiets down. Just looking for feedback and any is greatly appreciated.
2018's. Tough arrow.
You would likely be better off with 400 spine aluminum arrows, See if you can borrow some and try them out.
Fast flight string is a generic term these days...I have one bow that I shoot .500 spine arrows with a b50 string and with a high quality BCY-X string I need .340 spine arrows...I have a few bows I tune to particular arrows by switching strings...bareshafting is the best way to determine if dynamic spine is correct for you

This is just my opinion based on two bows that are #51@29" that I own. I have found that both 2216 and 2315 spine arrows left full length with 125gr. points work well. If you need to tune more then I would either raise or lower my brace height. Again, this is only what I have found to work.
