Torn between arrows for the hunting bow.
470 gr carbon at 199 fps vs 585 gr aluminum at 185 fps...
Bare shaft of aluminum is a tad weak but both shoot well with 5" feathers.
585 gr. @ 185 fps is awesome!!!
It is a 53# Border Covert Hunter. The suck up arrow weight really well and still remain very quick.
585 for sure. I'd rather have heavy than fast.
Heavy definitely
That's 100 plus grains more and you only lose 14 FPS?
Heavy all day.

Well, I shoot 825 at 165fps.
585 for sure :thumbsup:
Another vote for heavy. ... I don't have a chronograph but my arrows are 60 gr and I think they're fast enough!
I assume you meant 600 gr.
Another vote for the heavier aluminum arrows!!!!

I like heavy also. What are the specs of your setup?
I would go heavy. You cite good speed along with this increased weight. That seems to be a very desirable setup.
