I'm shooting Gold Tip 5575s from three bows: an old Bear Kodiak Hunter, a Bear Montana, and an old Ben Pearson BP-H30. The arrows work well with each bow, but I want to make them heavier. I have been looking at the brass weight inserts for Gold Tips. If I were to add, say 50 grains to both the front and rear, it seems to me that would add 100 grains of weight without altering the balance point. My question is: Would this alter the spine so that they wouldn't perform as well? Also, could I add the 50 grains to the rear and 100 to the front to achieve better FOC, and would this reduce spine too much?
Any input would be appriciated!
Ultimatly, I want to switch to heavy wood arrows, but currently I am in school and can't afford to be breaking several woodies each month roaving. It's carbon for durability for now...
