Hi Guys! im thinking in the possibility of making my own arrows. Like i told you in my recent post, im new in the bow making world. And i'dont have my own equipment yet. Im waiting my first bow, a turkish 40lb bow. (http://www.pampasbows.com/Asiatic1.html)
Can you suggest me what arrow to use for target? My draw lenght is 31". May i use Aluminium arrows with that bow? Which ones? And in Wood Arrows 5/16 is good?
Ok, ok, i know, too much questions.
I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance!!!

I looked at the bow on the link you gave.  Is your bow 40 lb  @ 28" or 31"?  With 40 lb and a 31" draw, you are going to need at least a 55-60 lb spine. maybe more, and that will be a 11/32 or 23/64 wood shaft.  With Aluminum I would start with a 2016.

My best advice is to contact the bowyer.  He will have lots of experience in matching arrows to his bows.  Good luck.
