What is you Northern Mist Baraga setup? Bow weight? Draw length? What arrows are you shooting (type, length, and point weight)
How about some Baraga pictures?

My Baraga is 40#  @ 28" but I draw a little longer.

I shoot mostly wood arrows and some bamboo and mostly use stone heads. When I use metal I use Black diamond, 125 grain 2 blade Eskimo heads.

My takedown Baraga is 57# at 27".  I shoot 35-55 Gold Tips, with 175 gr. points/broadheads.  I also fill the shaft with 27" of Ace Hardware clothesline.  The line adds 100gr to the mass of the arrow.  It also bunches up at the front after a few shots and won't
'bounce back' like some materials used to fill the hollow shafts.  I also shoot 50-55 cedar arrows from Jim Rebuck (J and M Traditions).  I put 145gr field points/broadheads on them.  Both arrow types shoot well.   I am going to try some Grizzly Instinct heads on the both types of shafts, but haven't had time to do so, yet.  Love the Baraga for feel, cast, and accuracy.
Good luck.

I had one a few month's back.  The bow was incredible. But had to sell it as I am only allowed to have one bow at a time as part of my 12 step bowaholic recovery program. LOL!  The Baraga was 60 inches and 54# at 28.  I draw 26.5 and was shooting Carbon Express 150's cut to 27.5 with 260 grains up front.  total arrow weight was 565 grains and they flew like darts.
