Title: Bama Bow Arrow Help
Post by: UrbanDeerSlayer on June 28, 2012, 10:55:00 PM
Hey all,  I've got a 50#@28", 62" Royal Expedition Bama Bow in the mail as we speak. My DL is 27". Cant wait to shoot it.  I have a bunch of Gold Tips 5575 and 7595's at full length 32".  Any of you guys shooting Bama Bows give me some clues if these arrows are too stiff, or just right? I'm itching to blast some arrows as soon as it arrives.  Any and all arrow input is welcome.  If it shoots a little weak I was gonna order 3555's or 1535 Trads.  What do y'all think?

Also, I shoot 5575's with 125g tips from my 50#, 62" Samick Recurve, but I'm not sure the Bama Bow will shoot the same even though both bows are the same height and draw weight. My primitive longbows seem to like a weaker spined arrow.  Thanks

I think 55 75 would be a little stiff with a 125gr head. I would try heavier heads or try 35 55

3555's should be ideal.the 5575's could work if you put enough weight on the front.I would start around 175 grs and heavier if needed.
