Do you find that bamboo shafts tend to lean on the light side for hunting? I have some i added a box nail in the tip that weight 37 grains and it pushed the total weight over 500 grains. Without the nail they are high 4602 to 470ish. Seems a little light for hunting.
Russ:
you normally want 10 gpp (grains per pound (on the bow)) for hunting. so it depends on the bow. so if you have a 50# bow use a 500 grain arrow. 47 pound bow 470 grain arrow and so forth
razorsharptokill:
Yeah I like at least 10 gr per pound for hunting. The cane being hollow, it is hard to get to that weight without adding weight inside or going to a 200 grain broadhead it seems.
Pat B:
The arrow I posted on the hill cane thread is 27" to behind the point and weighs in at 610gr. The head is heavy(195gr) but most of my cane arrows are between 500gr to 550gr, ideal for my 45# to 55# bows.
