I had a post about alum.vs carb.Now I have carbon force radial x weave arrows from my wheelie.They are 300's pro's they are stiff and grabbing the ends are hard to flex.Would these do for a longbow  with a draw weight of 65# @ 31".They are really lite and what grain head should I use?    :confused:    :notworthy:

That stiff? You oughta be using a 300 gr head to make up for it. I don't know who might make something like that, but it seems to me that those would be too stiff for your 65#er.

Of course, everyone is different.
Gila hickory selfbow 54#
Solstice reflex/deflex 45#

300's are too stiff for 65#'s @ 31".I would go with 400's in carbon or 2216's in alum. with a head in the 150 grain range.for more help go to easton archery's website at  www.eastonarchery.com  and look at their shaft selection chart.I hope this is a help

If you are drawing 65 lb's the arrows should work out fine for you.  Start off with some 125 grn points and see how they fly.
