Title: I Need Help??
Post by: traditional_archer on April 30, 2016, 05:52:00 PM

I am sure this has been discussed time and time again but I haven't been able to find the answer through search and the arrow calculators.  I think my main problem is that I flat over think things and make it far to complicated.  Anyhow here goes:

My specs Black Widow 62" Long Autumn Gray Long Bow
                     45lbs @ 28" Draw Weight
                     Factory FF string and
                     Silencers
                     7.5" Brace Height
                     Tie on nock point
                     My draw 27.75"
I want to shoot around 200grs up front and am undecided whether to go with a 150 or 250 Carbon express heritage or the Gold tip equivalent.  I am thinking somewhere around 30" Bop length, full length would be ok too.    :banghead:

I'm thinking .500 spine shaft? You should be at about 44# actual draw weight. You will have to leave them pretty long, but only tuning will tell you exactly how long.

I'm with Bisch on this one, perhaps 30" w/200gr would work but leave em full length to start.

Thank You, I was leaning towards .500 spine just needed that little nudge.
