Need heavy broad head
« on: March 02, 2007, 11:12:00 AM »
I just shot some poplar woodies out of a new Bob Lee recurve hunter (60" 58#@28").  The arra total weight is 545grns and I'm shootin' 125grn up front.

The arra's are hitting left. Underspined?  I'm going to try 160grn bh's next.

My question is what is a good glue on BH that will weigh around 200grns?

Orso,
 I believe If your arrows are hitting left, your over spined, If you are a right handed shooter.   :archer:

I realize this wasn't your question, but...

Keep in mind that spine is only one of the many things that might contribute to arrows hitting left (especially with bh's).

Grip, torque, bow hand hand after shot, string hand after the shot, anchor...

Just what ya wanted to hear, I'm sure...some specs on the arrows, etc might help make a better determination of cause.

If your arrows are under spined, you don't want to add weight to the point, shorten the arrow if possible.  I'm thinking like Arrow 1, that hitting left for a right hand shooter would indicate being over spined..in which case adding weight to the point may work.

You guys are obviously correct, I meant to say I believe the arras are overspined...
