Yep.  Looks like what some of us have been doing for 45 years and others have done for thousands and thousands.  Thanks for sharing.

1816 is 44# spine at 28"

1916 is 52/53# spine at 28"

With that much weight up front and left long, 1916s should work. You may need to do a little tinkering to get the best length.  Doubt they'll seem stiff, but if they are, a low stretch string would solve the problem. 

Currently shooting 700 Dark Timbers cut 30 inches with 250 up front from my 38@28 Kanati longbow.  I draw 27.5 inches and shooting a B55 string.  I really wanted to pick up some 1916 Autumn Orange shafts to fletch up.  Do you think if I leave the 1916's at 30 inches that they will shoot out of my bow or do I need an 1816 shaft?  Really wanted orange. 

Nice heavy boar for sure........wish I signed up but there's always 2027.

  Congrats. Nice story and pics Mint. Thanks for sharing with us. By the way how did you get your meat back home to Long Island. Thanks

Joe sent me a couple of pictures of hogs he's chasing at night. One big sow and one big boar.

Let's wish him luck!
