I have a Samick Sage 50#@28 and want to give woodies a try and need to know what spine.I would like broadheads between 130 and 200 grain.

You'll have to be more specific. What's your actual draw length?

If ya draw 28"s and shoot a 29" bop arrow that a 60-65# spine with 130 point will have ya darn close. Maybe a 65-70# spine with 140-160 grain head. shawn

My draw is 28. Was hoping to keep the back of point at 30 to 31 in.

in all honesty and candor, you will need to do some testing to find out what woods will work best for yer bow and you.  some dealers sell test spine "kits" - well worth the investment.  good luck.

Having a few test arrows is SSSOOOOO nice.
I have a few and it just takes such a big chunk of the worry factor out when ordering arrows or shafts.

The above recommendation is most likely right.
But it's always hard to tell for sure.

70-75 spine should be the ticket for you... With the point weights you want to play-with.

Do you bareshaft with the wood arrows.The only ones I seen in 3 rivers was already fletched.

Zradix

I don't bare shaft with the test arrows.

The fletched ones get me close enough to know what spine to buy.

Course you could always trim em off if you'd like.

I know Rick "the feathered shaft" sells spine test arrows. $8 each or 4 for $30

If you make your own, some shaft sellers might make up a spine test group for you.
