    So I’m looking for some feedback on how this setup looks. I’m finally going to set my wife up with a hunting arrow.
    Diamond Edge SB-1 IBO 318
    Max draw is 70lbs
    She is:
    Drawing 42 lbs @ 24.5 DL
    Zombie Slayers 500g cut @24.5= 164g
    42g brass inserts
    Vanes/nock=26g
    125g Magnus stinger buzzcuts
    TAW=357g
    Puts the numbers at 199fps
    And KE @ 33ft.lbs

    that's a lot of FOC and decent TAW. Almost seems that your KE should be a bit higher?
    Either way looks like it'll be more than sufficient for deer.

    I made a slight mistake and edited it. Should be 199 FPS and 33ft lb

    It's a great set up arrow. At first I thought you might wanna go a little stiffer but after reviewing the chart you/she is perfect at 500 even with the added weight. Good luck
