douglas fir all the way.  learn to make wood arrows correctly and you will never want to shoot anything else.

Endless loop strings, heavy bows, and wood and only wood arrows...my kind of archery!

My actual draw length is about 29.5 and my heaviest bow is about 115 at that length. The 2317 come close but ehh.. not at percise as I would like. Surewoods make a fine arrow but they are spined at 26" so when you bump that out to 30.5" BOP they end up a tad light. I think those gold tip big games might do it. And Im hearing something about 2512s. Anyone know the spine rating for them?

My son is shooting Douglas Fir regularly out of his 93# longbow and has great success with them.  His average arrow weight is around 900 grains but you can probably get Alleghney Woods to make hickory at your spine.
