CE 150's should work just fine. I have a 49#@28 TC and it shoots 150's and 250's just fine. I think they are cut at 30" ... I shoot about a 170 grn Simmons Bhead and 145 grn field points.

You will like this bow ... congrats

Great looking bow!!!!!! Looking at the pictures of it strung up I was just wondering what you have the brace height set up at.  Thanks John

Man, you gotta love those wood choices.  The braced profile looks sweet!

Sweet TC !!!

Jim's Thunderchild has a great profile!!

You're kind of a tweener and it depends on how heavy or light you want to shoot? A full length 55/75 with a good load up front or 35/55's cut shorter with less up front. I think you could get both to fly well out of your TC... You could tune an arrow to be 8 1/2 gpp to 13+ gpp by adjusting tip weight and length. Shooting style also changes the equation. I shoot with almost all my bows a weaker than recommended spine? Go figure but that is what works "for me" .... Get some and let some bare shafts fly ...  my 2cents

Congrats and good luck  :)
