Lancaster archery should have a few options in this spine for you.

1000 plus spine? I'm not quite sure of what you are asking? Are you wanting wood arrows?

Easton makes arrows in that spine range but they are very expensive.They are Easton ACE,a barrel tapered carbon and run around $250 to $300 a dozen not counting accessories.They don't make a screw-in point as they are very small diameter.But they have a .166 ID,same as Easton Injexion.So you should be able to use a Deep Six HIT insert that uses a Deep Six point with 6/40 threaded points.I had some Easton ACE 1150(.1150 spine) years ago for some target shooting.But I think that light of spine they are not very long arrows,I'm thinking like 26" to 28" long? You might want to look at Victory VAP arrows,I think they come in some very light spines? Finding light spine arrows that will use screw-in points may be hard to find if not very expensive?

Look at Victory VAP target arrows,you can get them in up to a .1200 spine.They are expensive too,but a straight parallel carbon that have a .166 ID.So you should be able to use Easton Deep Six componets that will allow you to use screw-in points.Probably not as expensive as Easton ACE cost.

+1. I haven't tried these in .1000, but use them regularly in .600 and have also made up a dozen in .800 for my wife to use In her 30# bow.  They used to make a 30 grain aluminum insert/outsert that worked well with 50 or 75 grain screw in points.  They evidently stopped making the aluminum inserts, because they bent too easily and people complained.  They still make heavier inserts, which would not be suitable for your purposes.  I found that if an insert got bent, I could spin it and straighten it in a vice while it was still in the arrow.  It didn't take much force to straighten it, which was the problem, I guess.  Anyway, you can still find them on the internet.  I considered buying a lifetime supply of them, but the glue in points really are more reliable, and none of the tournaments I shoot in care how you attach the point.

Lots of info here.  Surprised that nobody asked specific questions about yer setup.  

The first one that comes to mind is what weight are you pulling in relation to your draw length?

My own experience would indicate that 1000 spine would be too weak for 36# @ 28".  800 spine would be better.  If you're not drawing 28", then maybe 1000 would work, depending on what your actual draw length is.  I've found that 1000 spine works well for 25# bows, so it might work for your new bow.  PSE makes a good inexpensive 1000 spine arrow called the Razorback, but it comes with a glued in point.  Maybe you should just consider shooting for fun in the tournaments that require screw in points?  In 1000 spine arrows, the glue in points really do work better.
