Title: Add or add a lot?
Post by: 3-Under on January 22, 2009, 10:02:00 PM

I shoot a 51# @ 27" recurve.  My arrows are 28".  I have some left over 55-75 Gold Tip arrows.  Will they spine better out of my bow with 100 grain heads or 200 grain heads?

Probably closer to 300, but that would depend on what kind of bow, how centershot, how far cut from or past center and string material.  At least 200 grains from my experience with than and probably more.

I shoot about the same as you and 55/75 cut to 28" with 100 grain insert with 175 field point.

Son, you could pry hub caps off with 55/75 Goldtips.  Heavy...even Heavier.

George,

Whats a hub cap????


Just funning you.  I am only 33, but my first car was a 61 Ford Country Sedan Wagon with a 390 TBird engine.  I found some Original 61 TBird Hub Caps to put on it.  Looked Awesome, well to me anyway.  It was three colors, rust colored paint, rust colored rust, and a white top with MILES of glass.  Wish I still had the ole girl.
