Title: Shrew, Terminators, and HELP!
Post by: superkodiak on March 23, 2009, 11:43:00 AM
Hey guys,
 
 I have almost 2 dozen terminators cut at 29 inches in 60-75 spine.  I have been shooting them out of a 50# @ 28 inches Super Shrew Chameleon.  Right now I have the point weight at about 225, do you think I could get better flight with 325 grains up front?  Or should I get rid of them and go with the 45-60 spine arrows.

I would probably go down to the 45/60's.  You will still have a good heavy arrow and it should help you to tune them a little easier.

I would go to the 45/60's start at 30" with 225gr up front and work from there.

You've got the right idea - my 51# Shrew will shoot the 45/60's with 225gr up front, and the 60/75's with 325/350 up front.  I've got both, one gets there quick, the other just rocks the snot out of the target.

I'm sure you know which is which.    :D

The 6075 Termianators have a spine of .342 and the 4560 have a spine of .397.I think the 6075's are alittle stiff for your 50#@28 Shrew even with adding more weight.The 4560 have the close to the same spine as GT 55/75 and the Terminators say 4560.I think a .400 spine arrow may tune better then the 6075.I like to start full length with any carbon and trim and tune or add weight from there.
