Tim : I use 700-800 + from my low forties bows and my point on is 20-25 yds . I have shot deer out to 25 with this weight arrow. Drew

Heavy is good, right around 600 from a 46# bow! 0-22 yards, maybe a bit more if it was perfect!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki
