If I have 2 sets of arrows. one set is 28 3/4" bop spined 65# with a 160 grn point. The others are 29 3/4" bop spined 60# with 160 grn point and 30 grn of internal point weight. How much point weight do I have to add to the first arrow to obtain same  point of impact?

You will have to up the point weight a lot in the shorter stiffer shafts.
Likely 90 gns, maybe 60.
Is it pactical to move the internal weights to the stiffer set?

dnovo

I am thinking about taking the points off and doing the internal weights in the stiff set to see what happens. The short set of arrows were given to me. I refinished & refletched them, but they were the spine range i like but were already cut to length. So I am just experimenting to see what happens.

Do you have to short draw to compensate for the shorter arrows?

difference in the world, but the Marines don't have that problem.

No, I can still draw normal. If I had broadheads on they would touch before full draw, but not a problem with field points.

Man that sounds like one of those physics questions   :D  
But what Bjorn said. Good luck!

Trick question?, Man, I thought "real" archery was suppose to be simple?
