shooting heavy spined arrows

<< < (3/3)

PEARL DRUMS:
I have found the same to be true, Eric. I have no idea why a self bow would need 10# less spine? Maybe if it was a setty, nasty dog of a bow. I have a 48# Bear Grizzly that shoots the same 50# spine arrows my 48-50# self bows do. Very, very few of my bows wont shoot  the same 50-55# arrows cut to 29" with 125 up front, I draw 28".

It can be a frustrating learning curve.I found using FF string I need a 5# stiffer spine also opposed to B50.I think because it is stiffer.I just bare shaft tuned some dogwoods.They hit where I was looking at 15 yards when coming to proper anchor draw but tailed slightly left stuck in the target a big hay bale.I fletched them up anyway.They flew like a dart & quit tailing left upon impact then and hit straight.Go figure.
