    Hi Gentlemen, been a few years since I posted anything. So I have to reset my account. But anyways my question is..... If your arrow spine is on the lower end or higher end of arrow chart which do you choose? Meaning that im right in middle...... I shoot a Prime Shift 29" draw/ 28" arrow/ 62lb to 65lb d.w. (depending how my shoulder feels) I'm right between 400 spine and 350 spine. With out getting too technical... I was always shooting 350 Victory vforce with 100gr tip and 2" vanes, but.. I was shooting some 400 spine 5mm Easton Axis and they are beat to hell but surprisingly shoot very well.. at 20 yrds. Looking to buy new arrows soon and going with small diameter aND thiking of 400 spine. Any opinions on this question?

    All things equal, it's better to be over-spined than under-spined.
