hi! .. interested in these arrows .. can someone tell me what would be to hunt? to force the bow is 70lbs and mechanical broadheads 100 gr. 30 inch. length .. they are maybe too light?
Agreed. U would be better off with the Beman ICS Bowhunter 340's. They're great arrows. Its what I shoot and I have 28.5" dl and 70# dw.
I have been shooting the ICS hunter for a while and I am done with them. I also use the 340's. I know most will disagree but they are to fragile for me. They break way to easy imho. Have not figured out what my next arrow will be, but it will not be bemans.
I haven't had a prob at all with the durability of mine. In fact it seems to be the opposite experience for me. Mine seem very durable.
I have a 70 lb draw 30 inch length and I shoot the Beman ICS Hunters in a .340 spine....I love em! Ive had no durability issues. When I was sighting in my new rest, I accidentally shot the tree about 6 inches off the side of my target, thought the arrow would be shot, dug it out with my leatherman, took it to the shop, they checked it, and I shot a doe with that arrow this year. No problems. They have a real flat trajectory too.
I got some Beman ICS 340's and they are 31", I shoot a Matthews Switchback XT and it is 70 pound with a 29" draw. Am I ok, or do I need them cut down? Not trying to hi-jack the thread, but it seemed like it would work?
When your that close, I think its more of a preference on how far away you want the broadhead from the shelf of the bow, you could probably cut down to 30"-30 1/2". your arrow will be slightly less front heavy. That's just my opinion. I'm not liable for anything I just said. LOL That's what seems to make the most sense to me. You just have to make sure you've got the proper clearance.
I shoot the 400's out of a Quest Heat at 70 lbs at 29.5" DL and don't have any kind of tuning problems. I can put 3 arrows in a 4" circle nearly every time. The arrow I shot my buck with this year has killed 3 deer, all three pass through's and one went through the shoulder blade. They're durable and fly awesome even after a lot of shots. Plus you can't argue with the price of them.
I shoot 300s at 30" and 70# though I use a little heavier fixed heads. 340s are okay with 100 grain expandable heads but you are nearing the limit if you go heavier. 300s give a little wiggle room if there is ever a question but IMO 400s are too weak.
I have a ton of 400's that were given to me.... with my 70# Matthews, I think they are just not safe to use. Plus I don't know how old they are and if they are beat up at all?
