Title: Need help for a Stu Miller calculation.
Post by: Turkhunter on March 14, 2012, 09:49:00 PM
Im not very computer saavy and cant get the Stu Miller calculator to work with anything but aluminum arrow sizes. The calculator says that my bow needs an arrow spine of 57.1# I have a dozen Beeman Black Max 400 arrows cut to 29in BOP. What length and point weight do I need for these arrows to work if they will at all? Thanks for your help.

Require specific and accurate information for your complete set-up to place you in the ball park and to also provide recommendations based on what has been personally successful.

My bow is a J.K. Traditions Kanati, 52#@27in, I draw 27in. The bow is cut to center with a calf hair rest. I hope to shoot a Beeman black max .400 already cut to 29in bop. I dont know what the string is, it is what Jason sent with the bow. Sorry about not posting this earlier I guess it is realy important info to know.

A 29" generic .400 carbon arrow (they do not have the beamans in the drop down list) with a 100gr brass insert and a 150gr point and 3-5" feathers comes out at 56.5# on the calculator. if you have entered your bow info correctly and your bow needs a 57.1# arrow then this should be real close for you.
