Title: Arrow help
Post by: Riceburner on July 21, 2007, 10:20:00 PM
I visited an old sporting goods shop today and he has a couple of hundred autumn orange(AO) and gamegetters.
Well I am shooting a Shrew 54" and  and am drawing 47#. I get a 2016 at 29" w/145gr to shoot great but all he has in AO is 2114,2018 and 1916 the easton chart shows that the 2114 is about 9.9gr/in but I need help with choosing one of these AO's just because I love the color.

The 2114 should fly well for ya, the 2018 would workas well just up the point weight or leave it long and again the 1916 as well with maybe 100 grain head. Shawn

The spine on a 2016 is 0.531,the 2114 is the closet in spine at 0.510 but it is alittle lighter.In the easton catalog a 29" 2016 weighs 307 grs. and the 2114 weighs 287 grs. these weight are without points and fletching.A 2018 spine is 0.464 and a 1916 is 0.623.I would pick 2114 as the best pick from those listed.

The 2114 is closest in spine, it's a little stiffer than the 2016.  It is also lighter.  Add a little bit of point weight and I'll bet the 2114 would be a close match to what your shooting... but I would think both the 2016 and 2114 a little stiff for that bow.

What's your draw length?

The 1916 should also tune in that bow I would think, unless you have a real long draw.
