Need Help with Carbons....
« on: January 09, 2008, 04:45:00 PM »
I need   :help:  with Carbon arras. I seem to be having trouble unstanding all the info and what not about them   :confused:  . I want to switch to them for my PSR III, but can't figure out where to start. The stats on my Bow are 60" 51#@30" and I want to use 125gr heads. I'm gonna get in touch with BlackWidow, but I know my Brothers and Sisters here can help me faster   :help:  .
Sawdust, Wood Chips, and Shavings are as close to Potpourri as I get!!!!!!

Axis 500s, Trad Dynamics(might need an insert but I don't think you will), 35/55 pick a brand.

The bane of carbons is in figuring out what brand, model and spine will work for you and your bow.

The beauty of carbons is the durability and the ability to fine tune the FOC, spine and weight via shaft components.    

That said, Arrow Dynamics tapered Trad carbon shafts will fly well outta any trad bow from 45# to 75#.  Didn't believe it 'til I seen it in person.  Not cheap, but you get what you pay for ...

Yup, the Trad-lites or a Heritage 150 cut to 31"s with 175 grains up front would fly very well out of that bow. To get the 175 use a 50 grain brass insert and 125 grain head! Shawn
