Arrow wrap ??
« on: May 20, 2007, 10:56:00 PM »
This is probably a crazy question  :knothead:  
But have to ask??

How much weight will arrow wraps add &
will they affect arrow spine any????

I'm shooting wood now...
May try some Easton 500 soon?

They only add 10-12 grs. for a 7" wrap,I'm not sure how much they effect spine.When I bareshaft my carbons I have already put the wrap on them.Usally adding weight to the rear will increase spine.But it is spread out over 7" of the rear of the arrow.It may affect it alittle thats why I start tuning with the wraps on.

JRY same here bare shaft with the wrap on.  My wraps weight 1.1 gpi on a 1" wide wrap.  If your eastons 500's are axis you can get away with a 7/8" wide wrap, that is what I shoot on my 400s.  These weigh in about 1 gpi.

Hope that helps.
