I am shooting a 61" Holm Made longbow at 45 pounds with a 27 " draw. What arrow length and size or brand does any one reccommend .? carbon or wood? Also broadheads and weight? Thank u for the help
Hi Don, I shoot a 45#@28 Longbow. For a fast light arrow, I shoot a 28" 1816 aluminum with a 125gr field point. For deer, I shoot a 29" 2016 with a 150 gr two blade Broadhead. This one weighs 500 gr and has a foc of 16.4. It's a tad slower but packs a punch. I use a 4 1/2" four fletch on the heavy one.
55-60# spine cedar with a 160 grn point would work good cut 28" to back of point. Total arrow weight about 500-550 depending on shaft weight.
Gold tip 3555 would work well too as would Arrow Dynamics Trad Lites.
