Anyone remember what a Microflite #9 would spine at or what weight weight bow they would work from?
Danny
I believe 50-55# @28"
Take a look at the old charts that Rob posted here. http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=6;t=002522
Good luck.

to light for a 50 lb longbow @28"
I shoot them very inconsistently because of there light spine
It depends on what year they were made. '70 and before would spine 65-70# @ 28".'71 and later would spine 50-55# @ 28". Add or subtract 5# per inch from those figures. Hap
The #9's varied in spine. Some spined more than #10's. Some #10's spined the same as #8's. The yellow ones were the best and had the most consistant spine. Yellow #9's at 28" would shoot from 50 to 55# recurves. The dark green ones were anyones guess :bigsmyl: ...Van
Thanks everyone. They are the yellow ones. Should work out of my 55# Brack Quest. They are currently 32" from nock groove to back of insert.

You got the good ones, however at 32" they might be weak. It's a pain cutting them off. You gotta be careful. Good luck...Van
Well, heck, oh well I could probly sell them or trade them if I cannot cut them, I have a small arrow cut off saw that should work ok though, if I remember right I cut some #11 down a bit using it and it worked pretty well. Figure I will cut them down to 29" and they should work. I will just do one first to see how it flys before I go and cut them all down.
Danny
You need heavier spined ones?
Danny, 29" should work. Good luck :wavey: ...Van
