Arrow cut 30" or 30.25". 2117, 2216, 2219.
I have never shot a 2020, so I'm not sure if it would work.

Well, I've been trying to work some 2219's because I like the thicker wall sections.
Still a little wiggle on them, cut a little short at 30".
Tried some 2117's and was pleasantly suprised. But....they are too light adn too thin for my liking.
Have some 2020's I might try. really liked those out of my longbow.... also will try some longer 2219's

I'd vote for the 2219's. I've got an SAIII that's 55# @ 29 and I pull it every inch of that. A 30.25 inch 2219 is the only arrow I've found that's stiff enough to work with a 125 head. 2020 didn't even come close. In fact a 2020 won't even fly out of my SAIII that's 48# @ 29 inches.
Best way to determine is to bareshaft em.

Another vote for the 2219. cut to 31's at least, if not a bit longer. Go to

I looked and at 30"s and 65# bow it says a 2117 but ya have to add ten pounds for a high performance recurve so in turn it leads ya to a 31" 2219. Shawn

Yup. I guess I was suprised the widow liked the 2117's. They are bareshafting real well.
Of course these are closer to 30" BOP. Will try some 32" 2219's and see if I can make them work, otherwise I'm ok with the 2117's at 9gr pp. 580gr if I use a cap wrap.

2216's seem like they would fly great and have the right weight. I think they are slightly stiffer than a 2117.
