    We received an email from a guy who had a question about arrow selection, so I thought I'd post it up so everyone could chime in.

    I have a similar set-up as you Hunter. My Creed is 30" DL and set around 65#s.

    I'm shooting Carbon Express Piledriver Hunter 350's, and they're flying great! I previously shot Maxima Hunters, but I wanted to step up in weight this season.

    Darn good group at 70 yards...it must be a dial of death thing. At 70, what do you aim at; the middle of the target must be all you can see?

    I personally really like the Easton Axis. With that weight and length I would shoot the 340s. With a 100 grain tip you would have around 80 kinetic energy which is more than enough to take a Deer.

    CE blue streaks have been outstanding for me although I am also trying the Reds this year.
