Can Someone suggest a good arrow setup for me? I'm a 27 or 27.5" draw (pro shop that set it up didn't tell me which he set my bow at), shooting at about 60 lb. I was looking at : Black Eagle Rampage 400 (cut @28.5") Easton Hit Insert 75 grain (or Half-Out) NAP Thunderhead 100gr Nockturnal X Red Nock Blazer 2in Vanes Total Arrow Weight: 393.5 gr (with Half-Out) or 412.5 gr (with HIT) FOC would be 14.91% with Half-Out or 16.37% with HIT Any help or suggestions for a New Archer would be great
anywhere around 400 grains is good for hunting. Decent speed, decent penetration. The 400 spine arrow sounds about right for your setup too.
Go with the HIT arrow set up and should be a great arrow. Should really find out what your bows set at too.
I definitely will. I'm back home from College so should be able to take it to a really good, reputable shop and have them tell me everything about it
Also, check out the Easton Injexion 400's they are a amazing arrow with great penetration and great flight. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk
To have a good set of arrow one should have an arrow that is heavy, small diameter shafts, the straightest shafts, an arrow that just stiff and the broadheads of your arrow should be just enough to maintain razor-sharp blades, maximum penetration, cut huge holes and achieve dart-like arrow flight. For me that's the best thing you should consider when setting up your arrows.
About the question I have some opinions as below: There are two things to consider when choosing the right arrows for bow hunting 1. What arrow weight you want to shoot 2. How stiff the shaft needs to be to complement your draw weight and arrow length The standard minimum arrow weight should be roughly six grains for lighteach pound of your bow's maximum draw weight. Shaft stiffness is important because of the pull-and-release manner in which arrows leave the bow. Point weight is also an important element of choosing the correct arrow stiffness, especially if you release with fingers
I'd buy some Gold Tip Expedition Hunters 400s. Durable and won't break the bank. You are going to lose and break arrows when you are starting out, especially if you spend lots of time practicing. Which you should be if you are hunting.
