I'm hoping to get some ideas for arrow set-ups. I'm 29-30 inch draw and I shoot a number of different bows 55-60lbs at my draw.

What arrows do you shoot with similar stats
Thanks
Allan

I shoot wood with my ACS CX; if my DL were 30" I would need105/110# Doug Fir shooting a 160 gn point.
Wow! That would be a killer set up!  

29" draw, 55# osage selfbow, 30" 65-70 cedars with 125 gr upfront and 5.5" feathers. 5 gasket laquer dips to add a pinch of weight and stiffness.

29" draw, 53# sinew backed hickory selfbow, 30" 60-65 cedars with 125 gr upfront and 5.5" feathers.

I have a 56# BW PSA2 that I draw 29" I'm currently shooting an Easton FMJ 400 w/a 100gr brass insert and 3" wooden dowel inside.125gr broadhead.that gives it a 590gr arrow with 17.8% FOC.

It also shoots a 29.5 FMJ 340 100gr brass insert w/ a 5" wooden dowel internal,an 1.25 2016 external foot,190gr el grande with a 125gr steel insert yeilding a 794.6gr arrow with 28.8% EFOC

Both fly like tack drivers however if you don't shoot extremly heavy arrows stick with the first setup.That setup blew through everything with plenty of punch left too spare.

I shoot a 49 @ 28 A&H that I draw to about 54#'s. My arrow length is 31".
With that set up I use an Axis 400 with 250+ up front.. I would be the same set up would work for you..

ICS trad bowhunter 300's. My bows are right about 60 lbs or a bit over at 30".
I never could get the softer arrows to fly right without 1) shortening them to my draw limit and 2)reducing their overall weight to less than what I wanted to shoot: =/>10 gpi

You may be okay one click softer for a 55 lb bow and not a real heavy total arrow weight. Try 9 gpi.

Selfbow Osage,60#, shoot off knuckle, 29" river cane spines @ 60#, Simmons Interceptor (160gr., I think)
Doug Fir spine @ 60-65#
Ash spine @ 60-65#
Hickory spine @ 60#
All heavy finished arrow wt. %00Gr. +
Just what I like to have in my quiver.

Allan,

I draw around 30" and shoot an A&H ACS and a Saluki Ibex and pulling around 57#. Current I'm using the 340 Axis FMJ's with 250 up front.

Doug

55@30 ce heritage 250 31" 200 gr point

Allan I draw 30".  I shoot a Black Widow PMA with 62" limbs its 59# at my draw.  I shoot Beman 340 Bone Collectors.  When I cut them to 31" they bare shaft absolutely perfect for me.  No weight inserts needed at all.

I shoot easton 2216's @ 29.5 inches and 64#. I just busted my piggy bank and will be building a dozen beman MFX's 340 full length. I use 125 gain points and both fly perfect.

Easton axis 400 with my 52# limbs and 340's with my 57# limbs from a Habu VyperKan.  I draw just a tad over 29".  For broad heads I shot a 145gr two blade Magnus or a three blade snuffer.
habujohn

31" draw shooting 56 to 59# and use a 2216 or 2219 easton legacy at 32" with 125 to 150 grain point.

Long draws are nice and i dont want to look a gift horse in the mouth but i am sure limited on arrow choice and point weight choice

Its realy gonna vary with the bow, 60-65 out of a Hill style or 70-75 out of a shrew of the same weight for me.

I'm especially interested in carbon sizes and tip / insert weight

59 at 30" MOAB full length 55-75 GT aluminum insert 200 gr. point.

60 at 30 Tomahawk 31 1/2" CE Heritage 250 100 gr. brass insert 175 gr. point.

I can shoot the GT's out of the Tomahawk but can't shoot the 250's out of the MOAB.

55-64#@28" bows

I shoot AD Trads, 30.5" with 100 gr insert and 300 gr heads out of all of them. I draw 29".

Sovereign Sonoran longbow 56# @ 29"
29.75 55/75 gold tip xt
     fmj 400 both with 200 up front

Mine is the same as Pat B. within 1# of draw....DB

If you boys can believe it, they were too weak
