    So I have decided that I will be buying the new bowtech insanity cpx. Love the bow and want the right arrow to go with it. I have a 27" draw and will be set at 65lbs. The easton FMJ arrows or CX arrows seem like good arrows but my knowledge about spines and FOC is very limited. What arrow would be the best for my set up? I plan on using 100 grain BH unless a 125 grain would be better. Will also be using the blazers and just have a standard nock.

    Either are going to work well. I'm shooting the Maxima Hunter off of my Insanity and am extremely pleased. Weight is the biggest difference. Do you want heavier or lighter? The FMJ weighs quite a bit more than do the maxima hunter. But. The mayhem and pile driver arrows are heavier as well. You won't be disappointed with either of the ones you mention.

    well Id like a heavier arrow. Speed is not that important to me.

    You'll be very happy with the FMJ then I believe. They're fine arrows.

    Click on shaft-selector here.

    Might be off help, I`m a beginner so I`m not able to give any advice myself ;) Just bought the Easton St. Axis FMJ myself, went for a 400 spine for my Rampage 50-60# on 60#.
