    I shoot a 28 1/2" 340 out of my single cam,( Marquis), but my draw weight is 65lbs. I'd be happy to mail three 340s if you want to try a stiffer spine. But I shoot a 125 gr head so I'm not sure if the difference in spine would be that great. Let me know if you want to try the 340s I'll mail them Monday.

    What is the deal? just inconsistant shooting or hitting all over the place? fishtailing? Porpoising?

    Try a 125 grain tip. I have a bow setup for a 29" arrow, .400 spine, 125 grain tip at 60#'s. That is a touch stiff but it shoots BH's and FP's well.
