    I have an Edge Hyper 62" bow with 45 lb limbs. Im shooting 28". Im currently shooting my compound arrows, which I know are too stiff, ICS hunter 400s with 100 grain inserts and 125 grain tips.

    Im looking to get new arrows. I wouldnt mind sticking with ICS hunter arrows, as I have tons of components for them. Would the ICS bowhunter pro 500 with 100 grain insert, 100 or 125 grain head, three 4" feathers, cut at 28" suffice?

    Ive shot GT warrior 600 spines from my bow, and while they seem to fly good, I believe they would be too weak when I put 125 grain broadheads on it. That is with the stock inserts.

    any advice? Thanks

    I'm no expert and just started shooting a recurve this year but the local shop set me up with gold tip 500s cut at 29 1/2 in on a 50lbs bow. They shoot great.

    Hi. I am using 600 spine arrows in 40 and 45 lbs recurve bows. with 100 grains tip. for a 50 lbs 500 spine will be perfect.
    600 spine with 3 x 4" shield shape feathers.
