arrows for 52 pound bow
« on: June 27, 2007, 02:36:00 PM »
go a new bow that is much lighter than what i am used to shooting., and am in need of arrows. i think i want a finished weight of 475 to 500 grains for flatter trajectory. what would you recommend? 29 inch arrow.

You could shoot about 50 different arrows...axis/beman 500's, 2016/2018's, CE 150's, GT 35/55, Vapor's, AD lights, blah, blah...

Maybe narrow down what you want in the arrow - alum, carbon, wood...type of bow, etc...

when using the skinny shafts like axis or the mfx, how did you get 200 up front? i wouldnt mind doing that but i dont want to tear up my targets and almost kill myself pulling them out of 3d targets.

for that bow I'd say Arrow Dynamics Trad Lite with standard inserts cut 30" with 160-175 grain points. I am shooting a similar setup from 49-53@28 bows both recurve and longbow. Fantastic flight.

you can buy 200 grain tips with the backs tapered, it doesn't take it down flush to the arrow, but it's close

Might try 2114 aluminums if you don't want a real heavy arrow.
