I recently got a low draw bow for 3D and going to shoots. To be able to shoot high volume of arrows.
The bow is recurve. Cut to center.
It's #37 at my 28.5" draw.
I do want my arrows a little long. So around 30 or more inches.
I never had a bow this light and I'm not sure what spine?
Thinking a 600 spine. I have points from 100 up to 200 gr to play around with.
Thanks men.
Start with a 600 spine 30 In. Arrow and a alum. Insert and a 175 gr. point on a bare shaft. RH shooter if it curves left add more tip weight , if right, less tip weight.
Most of the guys I shoot with using bows of that weight are shooting 700s with points 100 to 150.
It would make a difference if you were shooting targets or 3d or hunting deer. 8 grs. per pound of pull weight would be better with a 700 spine for target, 600 spine 12 grs. per pound for hunting deer.
So a 700 spine with a light point may be better. I hunt deer mostly, and shoot thru deer with a 38 lb. bow in MN.
Thanks men.
Not saying I wouldn't hunt it. But this is mostly for fun and 3-d shoots yes.
Thanks for the advice. I ordered some shafts to try out.
I just bought some Gold Tip Traditional blems 600 to try out
for a good price to see how they will shoot but I'm cutting
them down to 27.5", I should say I'm also new to traditional archery
so I don't know what I'm doing 😆 yet, I've lost a flee arrows shooting
long distance, them arrows just disappear in the brush :banghead:
700's full length with about 85 to 125 up front aught to do the trick. The thought of putting more than 125 grains on the front of that arrow doesn't make any sense to me. 125 is already a heavy point and will likely give you about 10 gpp.
