    Just thought it would be interesting to see what everyone shot for total arrow weight, including your broadhead of choice.

    Last year my Axis hunting arrows came it at 405 with a 100gr G5 Striker. The Flatliners I shoot now are 353, but to me, that is a little light.

    So, what arrow are you shooting, what broadhead and total arrow weight ?

    Man, I'm the "heavyweight" in more than one way.....:rant: :D

    I have some that are 445 and others that are 465, all tipped with 125gr Slick Tricks or Slick Trick Magnums.....Out of my old Katera XL, I had, they were flying high 270's and low 270's respectably, with my AM35, I'll probably be 5 or so fps slower....
