2 Blade you can't make them fly bad.

You've gotten great advice.  Basically 10grains per pound of draw weight is what most people do.  Start with 2blade heads for sure.  As for length, if I were you I'd start with a couple full length and see how they shoot.  Then shorten them an inch and see how they shoot.  You may find the arrows you buy fly best at 31", 30", or 29" or it may not matter and you can shoot the length you like.

Good luck,
George

Thanks for all the advice.  I think I got hosed when I went to local archery shop.  I was a bit anxious and bought a set of Carbon arrows, 32" long at 8.67 grains per inch with 125 grain head.

And my bow is right at 42# at 27".  I feel like it's shooting ok.  I do like the longer arrow I feel like it helps me aim a bit. And the weight is right at 10 grains per draw.

Now on to my nock point!

Thanks again guys!

Cheers,

Bri

   CARBONS AND SELFBOWS DON'T CLICK. You make the bow why not the arrows.
