i like 10 gpp give or take .5 . hits hard gets there with authority to boot.

Depends on how quiet the bow is.If the bow is quiet enough to hunt with using a lighter weight arrow I see no need for adding more arch to the flight for things like deer.They are easy enough to shoot through with about anything.If the bow is too noisy I will add arrow weight to get it quiet enough or switch to a better bow.I consider 500gns to be a heavy arrow for anything I am likely to ever hunt and doubt if I would ever shoot anything heavier no matter my bow weight.Just don't need it.
....Quality deer management means shooting them before they get tough....

Just went and weighed my arrows for the first time in years to see if I was where I thought I was.  I shoot  tapered cedar  with a 14" taper in the rear.  I only draw 26 " so over all length is about 27 "  Makes for a natural FOC arrtow.    IM shooting 46 @26   My arrows average 510Grains with 125 field/braodheads. That is about 11 grains . Makes for a very quiet bow .  good penetration and good flight.     I have yet to see someone shooting less than 9 grains per,   that didn't have some flight problems .

What is ultimately better a slower heavier arrow or a fast light one??
Not enough info about 'said arrows' to even attempt to answer that.
