I've settled in on hardwoods specifically ash because of weight and toughness but difficult to get 8 out of a dozen to meet specs. 70#, 3-blade Woodsmans 200gr. upfront, 3 five inch shield cut wild turkey feathers which quickly stabilize, maintain shape and provide natural waterproof qualities. 750 gr. total.

GT Trad 3555's full-length with 3x4" elliptical feathers (quieter than shields), 50 gr insert, and 125 gr points/broadheads works very nicely for me--45 lb 60" Bear Super Kodiak off-the-shelf with about 27.5" draw.  Arrow weighs about 435 gr right at 10 gr per lb and smack-on Stu's calculator.  I'm shooting this setup for hunting, indoor, field, and 3D.
