In order to use the arrows that I wanted for this upcoming season, I had to increase my point weight to bring up my total arrow weight. So, I ordered some 225gr field tips from 3R's and some 220gr Muzzy Phantom SS's. Arrows are GT 3555's cut 30" bop for a total of 485grs. Shooting these out of my 62", 47# @ 29" Horne Pathfinder. These arrows flew crazy straight and hit hard! :scared: I added 1, 5gr brass weight to the back of the heads to keep my total arrow weight the same and then shot the heads at approx. 15yds. They are going to be devastating! "Hank the Tank" agrees. :D (I had to shoo him off my work bench in order to take the pics)
A special thanks to Zradix for helping me get my spine weight up in another post. :thumbsup:

ouch your cat have a good stomach !
Really happy you have your hunting setup worked out.
Sounds like a really nice combo.
Happy to help as are just about all the Guys and Gals here. Tradgang is a GREAT place to learn.
Good luck making some meat!
:thumbsup:
I hunt with the basically the same setup with my longbow and use the GT 55/75 with 50gr brass insert for my recurve. I really have had great luck with the phantoms.
I'm thinking of getting rid of all my other heads and strictly going to these. I love the way they flew from my bow! Hopefully I'll get first hand experience on how they perform on game this season. :pray:
