What Spine please???

[skychief]

What aluminums with 125 grain heads would you suggest for this setup?    40#@28", Bear Grizzly recurve, 58"amo.  My draw length is right at 28 inches.     Thanks for your suggestions!

I'd have to agree here.

1816?  That's pretty small and light huh?  Isn't there something heavier? A 2016 maybe?

1816s weigh 9.3 grains per inch. With a 29" arrow and 125 tip he'd get 395 grain arrows, almost 10 grains per inch. He'd be shooting the right spine for his bow too.

1816's work well,I have also been able to shoot a 1916 in my 40# Martin Rebal by going to 30" and using a 125 gr. point.You might try it,should shoot good and give you more wt.if you want that.My draw is 28" also.

Put the bow in the dynamic spine calculator program and found that it needs a 42.0 dynamic spine.

Ran some of the arrows suggested

1816 29" 39.4
1916 29" 47.7
2016 29" 55.8

I think the 1916 with 160 gr points (175 w/inserts) will give you the best combo for that bow.  476 gr arrow with a 17.6 FOC
