Title: Arrow spine recomendation
Post by: DanDaMan on January 22, 2008, 01:28:00 PM
I have a Horne TD mountain bow on order and would like to use the carbon express heritage.  The bow will be 60inch 57@29inch.  I want to run 100gr brass inserts with 125 to 150gr heads.  Not sure if I should get the 150s, 250s or 350s.  I would like to get 550 to 600gr total arrow weight.  I was thinking the 250s would put my weight right, just not sure if 250grs out front will weaken that spine enough to shoot.  Any help would be very appreciated.\\
Dan

also, the bow will have the bamboo core limbs, if that matters.

I would go with 150's,your bow is not cut to center so you have to flex around the bow.150's have a spine deflection of .487.I think 250's(.373 spine) you would have to load up the front end with alot of weight and that will put them over 600 grs. plus.You can buy 2 shaft test kits from SRTA here in the sponsors classified section.They are available in CX and GT.

The 250 will work for ya but ya would have to leave them 31"s at least and need all of the 250 if not 275 up front. The 150 cut to 30"s with 225 should be about perfect out of that bow. Shawn

Thanks for the suggestions.  How much are the 2 shaft test kits from SRTA?
