with my 76#@29, I use some 30" GT BG 100 + with a 1516 shaft inside, alu GT insert, 300gr broadhead and 5" helical feathers, 870gr...With my 67#@29 one, I used some CE Rebel hunter 7590 and 8gpi weight tube + and 200gr bh, I don't exactly remember their weight but it was around 850...are your CT safaris not too stiff?..I am still waiting mine, CT has not them in stock but I believe I succeed to find a dozen, I will try them with my 93#@29 hex V. I finally get my limbs but I couldn't try them soon cause I am removing..

I am shooting some 7595 traditional gold tips weight around 600 gr these are weak.
The full length CT safaris are slightly stiff but may use them anyway there around 740 gr with a 200 gr broadhead.
Thanks Bill

Elk, I am shooting Arrow Dynamics through my ACS...as well as every other bow I own.

For me, I've had a difficult time getting bad flight with these out of any of my bows, various draw weights, and various front-end weights.  In addition, the design of these shafts make it real easy to get a high FOC.

If you're in the process of testing some options, I'd recommend you give these a try...

Fatman
Thanks
I just tried adding 60 gr to the Carbon Tech safaris and they now weigh about 780 gr
Also better groupings I must be within 20 gr more or less.
Tired not been shooting for 2 hours and the groups are getting non repeatable due to me .
Thanks Bill

I don't think you'll have any luck getting arrows for it in the USA, unfortunately... But I can help you out if you mail her over to Australia, as we've got a few over here that would work!

Mate, lookin' at your list of weaponry, you've got some real beauties, and nice draw weights, too! All the best with your elk hunt, and I'm sure you'll get some arrows for her just fine!

My mate uses GT 75/95s out of his 70lb Black Widow longbow. Yours would have more "ooomph!" than that, but you could still tune it up, as he uses rear weights.

Arrow Dynamic Trad Heavies, 175 grain Zwickey Delta 4-blades, 9" flo orange "Onestringer" wrap with 4-4" flo orange RW sheilds and ACC flo orange nocks with nock adaptors.  Shoot great out of my 70# @ 29" ACS-CX.
