Help Choosing Arrow Set-up
«

I'm in the process of setting up some new arrows and have got 3 choices of arrow weights based on my broadhead/insert combinations. These arrow weights will be very close as listed or at least relative once I get done adjusting the arrow lengths during my upcoming bareshaft tuning. What option would you guys chose and why? I'm shooting a 46# ACS longbow. My personal debate is trying to decide if the added speed and somewhat flatter trajectory is better than the slower heavier arrow. The numbers are pretty close so hopefully you guys have some good opinions.

Stay between 9 and 12 grain per pound then its just a matter of matching spine to bow. I personally would rather shoot 100 grains more than shoot 20 grains under but thats just me.

11 grains per pound of bow is enough.
