Arrow Size for a Hoyt Dorado?

[Wannabe1]

Hoyt Dorado, 60", 45# @ 28". I understand they are usually 5# heavier than marked? Can anyone verify this? I pull 29" and want aluminum shaft that will be 29.5 BOP and would like to shoot 135gr - 150gr up front.

I would say IMO  a 2016 or a 1916 they always work for me around that weight I have noticed its very easy to get good arrow flight out of these bows good luck hope this helps!

I'd say SH has it covered.

if you want to shoot carbons, the beamen ics hunter/bowhunter 400 with 150 up front  at your specified length with fly like darts. You can also add 50g brass inserts for a finished arrow wt of around 490g for a super deadly combo from your setup! Just my few cents!! I shoot a very similar setup from my Hoyt gamemaster with the 45lb limbs. It shoots 52lbs at my 29" draw.

My Dorado is marked 45@28 and is right on the money.  The only way you'll know is to put it on a scale.  At my draw I get 48#@29 and shoot Gold Tip 3555 or 2016 out of it.  Shot a bear in Maine with it this fall and had great performance.  Bear was down in 35 yards on a dead run (pun not actually intended).  The head was a Zwickey 2 blade.
