Just curious, I have heard you want around 500gr total weight with arrows for recurves. Shooting around 50# would like to hear some opinions and suggestions on arrow size and broadhead weight and the combination. Lighter head, more arrow? Heavier head, less arrow? Shoot around 30 to 31" arrow. Suggestions please?

A Carbon express 150 with about 150 grain point will probably be close if your recurves are cut to center or a little past.
ok what about an arrow for a #48 at 28" draw longbow cut to centre i shoot 27" arrows
Ghost, 75-80 lb sitka spruce or cedar shaft with a 160 gr head. Start with the arrows full length and shorten 1/2" at a time until you get great flight. You will be over 500 gr, but with your draw, they'll be plenty quick.
Jeff, 50-55 lb spine, maybe a heavier wood like fir or hexpine. I like the heavy heads for you, too. Start with the arrows long and shorten them until they fly perfectly. If you want HEAVY, try the laminated birch from Allegheny Mtn Arrow Works.
For both of you, start with field points, half the set with 160's and half with 125's. See which shoots best for you. The lighter points will help if I judged your spine needs too low. There's a great wood arrow spine chart on the Whispering Wind website. Get there thru the TG Sponsors listings.
