arrow broadhead help suggestions
« on: September 05, 2011, 06:28:00 PM »
ok..have my new Dryridge coming this week.! It is a 3 piece r/d takedown fast flight..
.62" [email protected] draw 27 1/2..i am thinking the easton 500 game getter cut at 29 with 125 upfront..
how about some suggestions...on carbon and wood arrows
thanks ahead...and
 i am thinking of trying Zwickey 4 blades so, which arrow/grain  combination would work..
i dont bareshaft because i use the feather on my nose when i shoot so i cant get a real accurate result without feathers...

this is what I would do;  you need to first get the bow in your hands,,, 2nd get the brace height where its the quietest, 3rd get a carbon arrow "Test Kit" from whoever sells the Easton 500 version (or go with the test kit you can find for now)  have them cut to 29" BOP and do not have them fletched , also order a field point Test kit.. finally either bare shaft or paper tune @ 10' then work your way back to 20yds.  

finally put any boradhead you can find that spins straight and it will be perfect with any size fletch you desire and if you ever get caught in the rain and that fletch lays down it still flys perfect..

Sorry but that arrow will be light in the weight department, may spine OK. Go with a .400 spine and leave it long and go with 275 grains up front and cut til ya get good flight. Snuffers are nice, VPA's as well! Shawn
