Title: wood arrow spine for 60# cobra longbow
Post by: t.sisco on June 08, 2009, 10:38:00 PM
I have a samick cobra longbow, the self is not cut to center. my draw length is 28", arrow length is at 30". What spine wood arrow would i need. The arrows I have now seem to kick to the left at release, but hit straight in the target.
Thanks in advance for your help.

If you're talking softwoods like POC, Sitka spruce or Doug fir, I'd recommend 65-70, particularly if you have a fast flite type string.  If you're planning to shoot a 160 grain or heavier head, might need to go up another 5# or so.

probably 65 70 for a 30" arrow. i shoot  60 65 POC 29" with a 125 head and get good flight from my 60lb longbow
