Title: Arrow spine slection for a HH Style bow
Post by: flyguysc on April 04, 2016, 08:16:00 PM
New Jet Bow should be here Thursday. When tuning does the spine selection go weaker for this style bow? Currently shooting Centaur 62" not cut to center but closer than the Jet.Bow weight will be 52.lbs, 66". My draw lenght is 26.25 ". Shooting 2016 gamegetters which fly great for my 52# Centuar @26".

I have found that most LB that are not to center need a weaker spine.

Your 2016's will be fine.

My wesley special likes them weak, it's 46 pounds at 26 inches and shoots 600 spine arrows with 200 up front, cut to 28.5 inches

You may have to play with length and point weight, but you should be able to get a 2016 to work.

I ,like Possumjon, have found that my Hills tend to like slightly weak arrows.

Another for the "weak" camp. My Wesley Special is 60#, I shoot 50-55 Douglas Fir cut 26.5" (I draw 26") with 160 grain tips. Now, I do believe a part of that is just that wood arrows can be pretty easy to work with. I think a 55-60 would work too, I just stopped drilling when I hit oil.
