Don't know much about carbons, but from my 94# Silvertip, I have shot a 2117 inserted with a 1916.  They shoot very flat out to 40 yards, which is 20 yards beyond my comfort zone!!

goog luck!!

Dave should be able to make a recommendation on arrows to start with.

Bill, Contact Jay Campbell. He posts regularly on the Dangerous Game forum. He and his wife  shoot heavy Gold tips and he has done alot of experimenting with various arrows/spine etc. Smart guy and he knows alot about getting good flight.

If you are able to toughen up a little bit, and increase your draw weight by a few pounds, you might be able to use solid steel shafts with pitchfork heads. Using these components might put the game down quicker for you.  ;)

My wondering on the pitch fork heads would you get a complete pass through on that head or not .   :biglaugh:
