Bob Lee arrow help
« on: February 16, 2017, 02:51:00 PM »
Hey gang, I have a new to me Signature T/D recurve due in the mail any day now, 62" 55@28 and I draw 30. Really want to make some aluminum arrows for this one. Do you think some 31" 2219s will get me close being that these are cut 3/16 past center? Both my striker and Great plains hybrids love 2117s, but they are not cut as deep and they are both 55@30.
Thanks for the help,
Andy

Send Rob Lee an E-mail. He helped me out when I bought my takedown hunter.

My bob lee is one of my only custom bows that does not like a stiff arrow. My 2117s are to stiff and mine is 50# at my draw. I'd get you would be maybe like a 2216 ish. But all depends on point weight obviously. 2018 seems to be the mani none for my bob lee.

I just got my new Bob Lee Signature at the end of December (posted a review).  While I'm shooting carbons, they are just what the Carbon Express chart ordered.

My bow gained 5# from 28" to my 30" draw.  So if yours bumps up to 60#, the Easton chart would have you shooting a 2216 if you have a "lighter" broadhead under 150 gr or so, and 2219 is in the mix for heavier broadheads.

Stu's calculator puts me spot on with 2219s. I'm going to grab a couple 2216s to try as well. Can't wait to get it now! Thanks everyone.

Well, the bow showed up safe and sound Saturday.It came with a couple B50 strings so after a good looking over, set the brace at an even 8" and found a couple fir arrows that snag had made for me a couple years ago that would be close in spine. All I can say is wow! Smooth, steady, unusually quiet, feels about 5# less than it should and shoots where ya look. It shoots the 75-80s so well, I may not even try alloys quite yet. This is the first Bob Lee I ever had in my hands yet alone shoot. Should have bought one years ago!
