Title: Some arrow advice
Post by: mooseman76 on January 15, 2009, 01:27:00 AM
I'm gonna go pick up some test shafts sometime this weekend.  My bow is a Toelke Whip longbow (I believe cut to center, definitely not past) it is right around 53# at my 30" draw length.  I'm not set on a specific head/insert combo yet.  So I can go many, many ways.  

 I'm thinking of picking up 150&250 CE Heritage, and 500&400 Beman Classic MFX shafts.  

Which ones do you prefer and why?  Any other shafts I should try before I settle on my new arrows?

Beman 400 MFX, they penetrate far better.

i have a friend who has to shoot full length arrows and he shoots cx 250 100 grain inserts and 125 grain tips. i think you'll find cx150 to weak

For a longbow, I would lean more towards the CX 150's, full length.
