Title: Help on grizzlystik arrows!
Post by: OaKmAn44 on June 25, 2012, 01:30:00 AM
I saw these arrows and heard they are quite good so I want to get some. I just don't know if I should get the sitkas or the alaskans since my bow weight is the high end of the sitkas and the low end of the alaskans. I have a 50# @28 Hoyt dorado. My draw length is 28 also. I do want to get my arrow weight up around 600 grains. I know that you can get a couple test arrows but I don't want to spend the extra money for them so  any advice would be appreciated.

I have shot them alll.   Definitely get the Momentums 45-60.  They shoot like a laser out of my 50# longbow.  Cut a 29 inch arrow with a 185 grain head and add 50 grains screw in weights to back of insert should be close to 600. That would be a FOC heivyweight... Good luck

I've had both and a friend has some Alaskans. Neither of us shoot them.  I would move on. That's all I'll say.

I have had the Alaskans and had them Fletch and cut them for me.  They put one drop of glue on the insert so the inserts kept coming out.  I found on of the 6 inserts and that is when I noticed that they only put a drop of glue on them. So I called to get more inserts and they said that I had to buy them so I ended up selling them for nothing.  Ok arrow, bad experience with the company.  I would look into Arrow Dynamics and I like that the AD are made in the USA!

i have a bunch of the sitkas.  if you want to try 6 of them shoot me a PM.  mine do well up to 50#'s at 28"  when i get over 50# they are too weak.  relatively small window for me 43-50 # fly like darts
