Field tip frustration

Why does 3 rivers only have 145 gr field tips,  at 11/32,  when they don't sell broadheads at that weight?


On another note, would a long broadhead, like the Woodsman 125 gr.,  make more flex in an arrow than a 125 gr. short field tip because it's so long?

I need some recomendations for a field tip/broadhead match up for Sitkas, 32.5 stock for starters, with a 47 gr. insert for a 43# @ 28" longbow.

Aprox weight is 450 gr with insert.

All help is very much apreciated!

Thanks heaps,

Boom Stick

You better look again, they have field tips from 100 grain to 190 in 11/32nds. Weight is weight, doesn't matter how long the broadhead is. For your arrows, let them a bit long and tune them with either adding a lighter or heavier tip or cutting the shaft shorter a little at a time, depends on which way they need to go.
