The goal with any hunting arrow is to have one that will straighten up and fly right (straight) ASAP upon release and be 10-12GPP (if possible), and a true c-o-c razor stuck on the shaft's nose.  With a light 38lbs holding weight you'll be limited in a number of ways - mainly, consistent accuracy at specific shooting distances; different aiming points between 5m and 20m.

I'd stick with the 700s DTs ... but I'd rethink the length and point/broadhead weight.  Maybe even work on yer shooting form a bit, too.  I use 29" 600 DTs out of a 42lb holding weight longbow w/B55 bowstring, where fletched and bare shafts fly and group to 15m quite well ... so yer modified 700s could/should be able to work well enuf.

Add a true razor sharp c-o-c broadhead and with an ethical shot taken at an ethical distance that's commensurate with the kind of critter yer drawing a bead on, you can kill a moose with 35lbs holding weight - ASSUMING you, the twangmaster pulling string and aiming the shaft, can consistently put the blade into the boiler room every time no matter who, what, where, when, or why.  Nope, not many can do that consistently accurately with a light holding weight bow.  Turk, possibly.  Deer, a wild maybe.  Moose, nope.  It's all about yer shooting abilities and the Short Distance to the target/critter.

Good luck!
   

Used to.  One rig was a Dick Palmer Hunter longbow (basically a ML10 with the limbs reworked to trapezoidal) and wood flu-flus with GameNabber (I think that was the name - might have been TigerClaw) tips.  Also carry blunts when deer hunting and have popped squirrel with them.  One of the best shots I ever made was a red squirrel running along a felled hamlock trunk at around 20 yards.  His tail was on my back quiver for years . . . until I left it where a cat could reach it.  I also loke the glue-on Ace Hex Heads.  Very effective.

Had a neighbor when I lived "closer in" who owned 200 acres behind our house.  He was in his 90's and I had permission to hunt his land so long as I brought him four dressed grey squirrels annually.  He made them into delicious pot pies.


Never had an official call, but at some point someone showed me how to attract them by clicking the edge of a quarter aganst another laid flat in your palm.  Sometimes worked to get them in.  Curiosity, or maybe it sounded like another squirrel chewing nuts?

I have shot squirrels before and my set up was wood shafts with single full feather spiral fletch for squirrels up to 30' to 40' in a tree, farther than that, a 6 fletch with heavy helical. For a head my favorite was an old TradGang invention called a ""nutter, a 3/8" hex nut threaded on the tapered end. I would thread it with about 1/4" of the taper protruding and soak that end with super glue to harden it up. The extended taper would give some penetration as the nut gave the thump.

Congrats on a fine shot buddy!

I should probably add that my average shot distance is right around 12yds.

You should be fine. I'm shooting a full lenghth 1916 from my 37# N.M.Shelton and that arrow in the rib cage equals dead deer

No chance of Corey ever going hungry!! 

Yep, same. No calls, steel small game heads, and I just wander thru the woods until I see 'em, then just try to sneak up close enough to get a shot...

...Except when there's too many in the back yard under the bird feeder-then I just whack 'em from our kitchen slider, & haul 'em down to the pasture across the road to feed the turkey vultures ("buzzards gotta eat, same as the worms..." I once heard  )


I also use my carbon shafts instead of aluminum so they won't get bent up!

We are offering a free call with knife purchase!

You guys are moving along nicely.  Good work so far.
