im perparing a new bunch of arrows, will choose Cx Heritage for their durability (and price ^^).
I will use it for 3d shooting so .. lightest as possible, no heavy inserts and point (10% FOC is ok).
So i started up Stu's awesome excel sheet and begun playing with it:
CE Heritage 075 : shaft model and spine 28,50 arrow lenght back of point 90 gr point weight 11 gr insert No footing Nock+wrap=16 gr 5" Feathers Dynamic arrow spine= 65,9
bow data: Performance Recurve / Horsebow : bow type 45,0 28,0 : 45@28 27,5 ; my draw lenght 1/ 8 past center FastFlight 16 strand Dynamic arrow spine=62.9.
Bow is a Border Black douglas with Hex5 limbs (take a moment to read PeteWard review about this bow, it's a nice piece of equipement).
Will gain the 3 units of spine using a better string (my FF16 is a piece of crap), no problem.
It's just that i dont feel comfortable using a CX 75 that's small ...
So do you have experience with Cx 75 and do you think i might do a wrong calculation ?

Could you re-post without the formatted info being skewed?

Do you have any strike plate material at the arrow pass that would change your actual -1/8" entry?
I came up with the same 65.9 and 62.9 values, if the CE 75 Heritage does have a static deflection of 0.608", seems like your choice should work. I bet that Borrder bow will really spit them out!

That's calf skin off his chinny-chin-chin, quite thin indeed, hmmmmm. Good luck with your testing, it can be fun.

I got the same numbers as you. If you keep the same string you could go to an arrow length of 28.9" to get it spot on.
