Title: Pronghorn Help
Post by: ssoden on February 16, 2009, 09:58:00 AM
Looking for help to determine the correct spine for a 62" 60@28 TD pronghorn bow. I just curious on what others are using. My arrows are cut to 29 1/4 with a 145 grain point.

Thanks for your help,
Steve

What's your actual measured draw length, and what arrows are you using?

My draw is 28" ... I use birch and cedar.

I have a 60 inch, 59# Pronghorn that I draw 29 inches.  I shoot 70-75 woodies with 145 or 160 heads.  Hope that helps.

Assuming the bow is cut to center and using a hard string, I would say 75+.  You may do fine with 70-74, too, hard to tell for sure without shooting first.  Check the spine chart at Whispering Wind Arrows, it's very good.
