I’m a 26” draw length but my brace height is 7.125 so I’m wondering if my arrows will be fast enough to kill moose, bear etc in Alaska where i live. I understand arrow weight factors into it but wasn’t sure how much brace height had to do with it]]></content:encoded>

As per Gold Tip:  Total arrow weight (grains): 387.2<br />

I wear heated socks, so I&#039;m not looking for a 2500Gram rating boot, something that&#039;s lightweight and I can wear all season around 600-800 grams is preferred. I&#039;ve never been a rubber boot guy, but if you want to pitch me on why you use them, go for it! I&#039;d like to keep it around or under $120.00<br />

What do you wear?<br />
Do you recommend it?<br />
What should I wear?<br />
