Appropriate Arrow Weight for a 65# Recurve

<< < (2/2)

aaron:
spine weight 300 does not compute.... it should be something like 40-45 lbs. 
you may have to move this to another section 'cos it deals with carbon arrows.
most of us myself included know little of carbon arrows.,,, but the same principles apply

aaron:
ok i just looked up the shafts you got.... and i see that they DO list the "spine" in #'s like 200, 300, .
not sure how these correspond to "our" way of measurung in lbs....
but anyway, you can just go with something like a 150 grain point and test all the shafts that way- it's bound to work with one of 'em.
some will seem to shoot left, some will shoot more right -find the one in between!

sailordad:
hes right on the carbon spine thing
i have some eastons that are 400's
i personaly dnt understand the whole carbon arrow thing(even though i do buy them)
i just tell the giy at the shop what im shooting and what weight of heads and what arrows i like  and he tells me whick onesi need for my wheelie thingy

as far as the points for the arrows for your recurve,no clue/
i just make em and shoot them.once iget used to the new arrow i just shoot them and hope they hit where i am aiming ;D

dante76:
Thanks Aaron & SailorDad! I'll start with the 150's and see how they work.

Being a novice, i really needed to hear some thoughts from experience archers.

thanks a million!
