I have a 55 pound tomahawk bow. I want to order a 625 to 650 grain carbon arrow with a single bevel Broadhead. What Arrow and spine would you recommend? What inserts would you use I'm lost? on the spine calculator I can't seem to get anything even close to a match with an arrow that weighs 625-650 grains.

Have you tried a GT trad 55/75 at 30.5 BOP with a 100 gr insert? Then maybe a 175gr BH?

I shoot 55lbs at my draw and my arrows fly perfect. I shoot 3555 with a 5gpi weight tube and 100gr brass Insert with a 200gr bh.. Overall arrow length is 27.5".. Hope this helps or gives you some sort of reference!!!!

I have not had much luck with what most charts say I shoot a 62# longbow similar to the tomahawk with 5575 full length arrows, and 300 gr up front. They seem to fly well for me. I thought for sure I would need a 7595, but see no need to now. I am cut to center but when I look down the arrow while nocked, it looks like it is out about twice the thickness of the arrow. See if you can shoot a few before ordering

I am shooting the new Legacy series in 55# with a 30.25" 340 spine trad only. I have a 100 grain brass adaptor and 200 grain points on the end of them. They weigh in at exactly 642 grains. I shoot a 29.5" 400 spine Trad Only with a 100 grain brass insert and 175 grain points out of my Diamond series SS.
