Title: arrow weight vs draw weight
Post by: agd68 on March 09, 2010, 09:27:06 am

Hey All, I have to ask some advise on arrow weight.I recently got a BBI 68# RD, what is the lightest arrow weight I should shoot without causing the bow too much stress. I have some arrows I have for my 55# bow that fly well off the new one but only come in around 550-600grs.Are these too light

6 grains per pound is the lightest I've shot out of my bows. But then the bow was loud and the handshock was unmerciful.
