Is this setup in the ballpark?
« on: March 06, 2007, 09:53:00 PM »
Hi all, I have a Quinn Stallion Classic 45lb at 28". I will be drawing to 28.5-29", using 31" 3555 goldtip traditional arrows(8.6 gpi) with 100gr brass inserts and 150gr razorcap broadhead. I plan on hunting whitetails with this setup, any suggestions or comments? Thanks

For me that arrow wouldn't be stiff enough with the heavy insert.

I'd try it without the 100gr inserts first....  You'll still have  a 450gr arrow.

I agree with Mike. If you really want that much
weight build out your riser strike plate with
a tooth pick behind some velcro. That will make
the bow less than center and allow the heavier point.
He who sacrifices freedom for safety deserves neither.
