Title: What Beman Centershot?
Post by: Bullfrog 1 on October 15, 2014, 01:21:00 PM

I was looking to give these a try. I am shooting a 59 # R/D whippenstick at my 30 inch draw length with a 31 inch arrow with a total of 200 grains up front. 340 or 400? and what do you guys think of the durability for those who have tried them? Thanks.  BILL

Can't answer your question on right spine for your bow draw and weight because I shoot 50# longbows and use the .500 spine Centershots.

I have been shooting the Centershots since they day they have been introduced  by Beaman and absolutely love these arrows. Not on purpose of course but I have driven them into cinder block walls, stones, hard wood and just about everything else imaginable without breaking them. I have tried several different carbon arrows and these have held up the best by far.

I shoot 340 Easton Aftermath (same arrow no wood grain) and I have a 30" draw and  with a full length arrow (32") I use the 75 gr inserts and 200 gr points.  I shoot a 55@30 tall tines recurve.  Hope that helps.

Great arrows. I too have been shooting them since they came out. I shoot .400 at 30.5" with 75 grain insert and 150 grain VPA I'm pulling 59lbs at my draw
