My Gold Tip Trad 35/55's would shoot out of your bow just a tad weak at their current state but you can shorten them to 29" & use 150gr. points & they'll be darned near perfect for you.
Zona Custom Recurve: 60" 49# @ 27.5".
Sky Sky Hawk Recurve: 60" 47# @ 27.5".

I would think you could get CX Heritage 150s to work playing with length and point wt.

I shoot 54# @ 26" and use Beeman MFX Classic carbons in 600's with 150gr tips. I use plastic tubing weight tubes too increase weight. They fly like darts and penetrate well. Good luck.

The 150's would be  my suggestion also. Start with a longer shaft and cut as necessary. Probably will find that a shaft between 30 and 31" and about 200g up front should be real close. that will give you aprox 530g and a sweet shooting bow at 10g per lb.

Good luck, Bigjim

I really like Beman MFX footed shafts. They are skinny, hefty for carbon, easy to tune, easy to foot, tough as nails and for me the best hunting shaft I have used since I started doing this sport in the 50's,

CX Heritage cut 29" with 225 up front should be a good starting point.
