Opinions on arrow choice??
tallpine:
Ifrit gave you some good advice, leave them long and bare shaft them, aluminums are easy to tune. Ive shot them out of glass bows for years and did not find them to be particularly fragile. While not my choice for a self bow they are more than adequate to hunt with. Use them until you can get some proper wood arrows
RabidApache:
Hmmm 50#@ 25.5". I'd say to get you in the ball park 55# spine cedars at 32" with 125gr.
I have a 48# glass recurve and a 62# Osage selfie @ 26" that loves this setup.
But remember......tune to your specs.
PEARL DRUMS:
Im betting your too stiff. You may consider 160 grain heads, or more. That, or leave the arrows 2-3" too long.
crooketarrow:
SELFBOWS AND ALUM. DON'T MIX
Your still inthat compound mode.
It won't take you long to understand this.
koan:
The problem i have run into with aluminium arrows is they are just to light in physical wieght wich usually translates to handshock that will shake the fillins right outa your teeth :o, lol... That bein said, i have made a few bows that love em ;).... Look in your backyard for shoots or ask a local farmer if you can cut some of his multifloral rose...garauntee he will let ya ;D... Brian
