Here's my set-up: Bow- Fred Bear Element d/w- 65 lbs d/l- 26.5" sight- Cobra boomslang 4 pin rest- whisker biscuit Tips- Muzzy mx-3 My ?? is what my arrow length should be? and what weight? and should i use aluminum or carbon? I will only be hunting whitetails with it.. Any advice you guys have will be appreciated...
I have never had any problems if I just simply followed the arrow manufacturers chart and used a good rest. Especially if it gives a few spine options and I pick the one in the middle.
I'm still figuring out what I need in an arrow, but I learned a lot from this website http://www.huntersfriend.com/2007-Carbon-Arrows/arrow-selection-guide1.htm Hope it helps
http://www.eastonarchery.com/products/selection All you have to do is plug in your numbers. I am an Easton guy. For a new guy: Powerflight carbon C2 or Platinum Plus alloy.
I'll throw the numbers on OnTarget2 in the morning and give you some specifics, but I think you could get away with either a .400 or .500 spine, but the .500 may require a 75gr tip at about 26" to spine right, a .400 may need a 125gr tip at 27" or so to spine right, either would be pretty close I think though, but I'd have to plug the numbers in to give a definitive answer. You CERTAINLY wouldn't need anything stiffer than a .400 though.
