Title: Aluminums for a 40lbs 59 Kodiak
Post by: AlanF on June 08, 2013, 08:02:00 PM
I'm new to recurves and aluminum arrows.  Got my sights set on a 2013 59 Kodiak in 40lbs and I'll be drawing it to 28".  It looks like the 1916 Legacy shafts would be about right cut to 29" and topped with 125gr heads.  What do you think, am I on track?

You should be in the ballpark, might have to experiment with tip weight-

1816 might get you what you want also.

I think the 1916 are just about what you would want, like Maxwell said though you may have to play with tip weight.

1816 would be my guess.

Good luck with your tuning. I'd like to see/shoot one of the new Bear '59s.
Don't know for sure what will work for you. I have some low pound bows and 1916s work for some and even 2016s work for some. I always shoot 125 gr. too.
