Just picked up a new to me Griffin, and I'm thinking about trying some wood arrows with it.
The bow is 48# @ 28" (I draw around 27 1/2", so maybe 46#).
I would like to shoot a 28"-28 1/2" arrow.
Centering the string visually on the limbs to check centercut, it looks to be almost 1/4" from center with the shelf plate included, etc.
What spine would get me close? :help:
Thanks everybody. :wavey:
MRD,
I shoot a 46# Rose Oak that is cut past center with a fast flite string. I shoot 55#-60# shafts that fly great.

Dont know if this will help at all, but my Griffin is 56@28 (I draw 28)and LOVES CE Heritage 150s, at 29.5" 50 grain brass insert and 125 heads.
I have shot limited woodies with it, but the ones that flew best were 60-65 ramin cut to 29.5" and 125 tips. The 50-55 Chundoo and Cedars flew a bit sloppy.
On another note, Izzy has experience with woodies and Griffins, he may be able to help out more.
I shoot everything from 500 MFX to 750 grain ash shafts outa my 46lb Griffin so the bow is not too fussy.I would think a 30 to 31 inch 55-60lb shaft will work for you.This advice is in no way derived from any specific formula but I think you will be suprised at how tolerant of spine they are.

I have a Kanati, 50# @ 28 inches. My draw length is the same as yours. I'm shooting 29 inch POC shafts with 145 grain heads and have good arrow flight. Hope this helps.

Thanks guys. What is the spine of your arrows, Al?
