I pull 28" and recently acquired a 40# bow. I have had great success shooting Easton ST Epic .600 (full length) with a 200gr point or cut to 29.5" with a 250gr point.
Hope this helps you out.

1916 29" with a 125gr point would be close for alum.
You can see my hunting set-up

A beman 600 with a 75 gr insert and 125 head will put you about 450 gr at 29". That should work well with her 41# at 27" if the bow is close to cent cut. Small diameter arrow, too, to help with penetration. If you want a bit more weight, try aluminum footing

May want to look at the Predators in the 700 or 800 spine if you don't want excessive shaft length.

And weight up front. You can call Big Jim and he can probably get you on the money

We carry the Predator II's in all spines, the lowest are the bomb for lighter bows.
I'd suggest the .700's for that bow, I believe you'll be pleased with the results.
