elk arrow weight?

Well, I am going to hunt elk in a couple weeks, seriously, for the first time.
Here is the setup. Martin Savannah 55@28" (my draw length is 27"), Douglas Fir arrows spined 55-60#, 28" long, 125 grain Zwickey Eskimos, 5" shield, total arrow weight 510-530 grains.
I probably won't shoot past 15 yards or so, maybe 20.
Any glaring problems? Thanks for the input.

You have lots of bow and lots of arrow weight to do the job. I prefer a heavier arrow, but would not hesitate to use your set up. Just keep out of the big bones no matter what weight bow or arrow you use.
