    Hey everyone, I am completely new to bowhunting this year and have some arrow and broadhead weight questions. I will be hunting white tail from ground blinds mostly. Shooting range 10-30 yards maybe 40 at most to start with. I am shooting a Bowtech Assassin set at 62 lbs with a 28.5 inch draw. I am target shooting with easton 340 grain arrows and 100 grain field points. I am wanting to shoot fixed blade broadheads. I am curious as to what weight arrow and broadhead combinations would be ideal for my conditions, I know opinions vary and I am not interested in brand loyalties at this point. I just want to know what weights I should be using. Thanks so much for the help.

    Use broadheads that match the weight of your field points.

    You will need to broadhead tune as well.
