The four brown arrows are micro flites. if anyone knows more about them please chime in.
I really bought them for the bear razor heads
The blue ones go with the label on the box

did a little research, the micro flites are #6 at 28.5" BOP and from the charts I've seen that would = a 35-40# bow at 28". give or take
currently i'm shooting 50# on most of my bows, mainly a bear super grizzly
The true flights are 30.5" BOP and hopefully spine closer to my weight. i would really like to give them a fling.
 The box label states _0-60#(assume 50-60#) but also shows at 28".
 once it stops snowing here i'll get out and enjoy some history.

Durp, I'm sure I'll never use the micro flites. More of a collector's item.
 If you really want them shoot me a pm.

I hunted with micro-flite 9's this past season. Very tough arrow. Flew great out of my 48@28 Bear TD "B" riser and #3 Big Foot limbs making a 64" bow. The Micro-flites were often used by Fred Bear.

I have a 46# howatt sharpshooter 20 , thats the lightest bow I have.
 I might be able to shoot them from that. being a Michigan native, I have an affinity for bear anything.
 It's been fun researching the micro flites .
 The true flight arrows sport a MA3L broadhead. Apparently made by the make all tool company.

It's funny what you can stumble upon at junk stores.  Those are really cool.
