Title: arrow weight need help
Post by: fryar34 on June 16, 2009, 10:29:00 PM
I just got a black widow psa 63#@28 but I am only 26.5 inch draw, which should put me in the 58# range. My question is I shoot the cx heritage arrows but what size do I need for this bow, the 150's or 250's. My set up is usually 5 inch feathers, 8 inch wrap, a luemanok, 50 grain brass insert and a 125 grain magnus. Will that work out of this bow or do I need to go heavier or what. Im confused please help

What is the weight of the luminok, and to what is the shelf cut on your widow? If cut past center then how far?

A CX 150 cut to 28" with 175gr. pt weight, 5" feathers, wrap , and luminok should give you a 500gr. arrow + or - . With your bow at those specs. if you build out you side plate 1/8" should put you real close to right.
