I shoot 1816's with 200 grain points out of my 35# longbow but my arrows and draw are shorter than yours. Therefore I would go with the 1916's or if you want a much heavier arrow 1820's would be my choice.

If you want a lighter arrow 2013's may work for you, too.

Either will probably work.  I'lean toward the 1916, cut to about 29 1/2 inches BOP for your 28 1/2-inch draw.  Zwickey eskimos (125 grain) or eskalites (110 grin) are good 2-blade heads.  There are lots of others out there.  Something in the 110 to 140-150 grain range will work.  Feather length is a personal preference.  I shot three 5-inch feathers for years.  I'm not shooting 4, four-inch feathers.

I have more than enough 175 grain heads for me and my neighbors. :biglaugh: I wanted to see if anyone thought it was too much for a light bow.  I'll have to get some lighter heads.

PowWow / Arrow for 35 lb hunting bow
Last post by Buzzard2 - Today at 05:25:26 PM
Hello All.
I hope I'm in the right area. If not, please move this post to where it is best. I have a 35 lb. longbow and want to set it up for hunting.  Which arrow and components would you suggest. I will shoot aluminum arrows.  I was thinking either a 1815 or 1916.  I have a 28 1/2 inch draw. I prefer a 2 blade broadhead.  After that I'm open for suggestions. What weight broadhead?  Which broadhead? Which arrow? What length feathers?  I'm open to all suggestions.  Thanks to all.  God Bless.  Bob

Another vote for cool melt. Not sure why a mfg would admit their product doesn't 'adhere' to the same laws of science that others do??

I just went out and did some cold weather testing with a 68" Northern Mist Classic shooting split finger. 

Used:
A) Big Shot glove with Nylon Velcro stuff on fingertips.  Fits loose on my fingertips.. I should have bought a medium!!
B) Bear Paw leather glove in medium like Scott Phillips uses.  I thought maybe that was the secret to shooting like that!!
C) Safari-Tuff split tab.

My Groups were the best with the Safari-Tuff tab.  Next time I'll compare the Rick Barbee's tab against the S-T tab.

No I haven't but buying the wrap material (Oracal 651 or 751) buy the roll you could cut pieces 14" long. Then cut to width.
