Depends on the type of bow, length of your arrow, how close the bow is cut to center, recurve or longbow, what your draw length is, etc.
That info will get a good guess.

2117 Aluminium, 340 or 55/75 carbon, 80# wood. Just as a guess, BUT...

Obviously all of this depends exactly on what your ACTUAL drawlength is, EXACT holding weight at your draw, point weight, arrow length, centre-cut of the bow, string material, yadda yadda yadda.

More info definately needed.
