Arrow Spine Question

(1/3) > >>

wvarcher:
Anybody now from experience what spine/weight would work for me and my 50lb selfbow?   Here is a little more info:  I am shooting a 67-inch 50lb selfbow with bulbous type stiff handle.  the handle is 1-inch wide at the arrow pass.  My draw-length is 27-inches.  Total arrow length will be 27.5".  Thanks for any help.

Bill Skinner:
Is there any cut at the arrow rest or is the rest 1/2 inch from center?  What point weight?  If the latter, and due to the shorter length, an arrow of 40-45 or 45-50 should work.  You might have to play with point weight to get perfect flight.  Bill

     Bill, the point weight is 125 grain.  No shelf, which leaves the arrow 1/2 inch from center.  thanks

Personally, I would much rather shoot an arrow 30" @50# spine than a 27.5" arrow spined at between 35-40# for your set-up................Art.

Dang straight, leave them suckers long if they aren't already cut.
