Vapor arrow selection?
« on: December 28, 2007, 10:38:00 PM »
I'm getting ready to order some stuff from Kustom King with my gift cert. I got for Christmas. Anyways I was wondering which spine Vapor Blackhawk I should get. My setup is an Chek-mate atilla  47#@28" and thats my draw, 12 strand D97 string. I'm wanting to load the front for EFOC around 300-400gr total thats with insert, adaptor and broadhead. I'm thinking the 2000's are going to be to weak so the 3000's should be right? Right now I'm shooting POC 65-70 cut to 28 1/2" bop with 200gr head and they are a little stiff if that helps any thing.

Thanks for any help.

If it's any help my recurve 53#@27 likes the 3000's with 225 grains up front and 29 1/4 inches long to the back of the point.

I would say the 3000s will work. I made some up for a buddy to shoot from his Shrew. They are 29" to bop and have 50 grain brass inserts and 150 gr. field points. His bow is 56#@28" and they bareshafted well...just slightly weak, and with fletching (3-5.5" shield cuts) fly like darts. I am thinking that the finished arrow weight is right at 525 or 530 grains. Hope this helped and good luck! Mike

Give the folks at Kustom King a phone call. You'll find them immensely helpful, friendly and knowledgable.  :thumbsup:

With no additional weight up front go with the 2000. With the way you want to load them up front go with the 3000. I use Vapors and have a bow in that poundage and either one will work. Just depends on how heavy you want your finished arrow.

I shot the 2000s cut to 29.5"s and a 50 grain brass insert and 125 grain field point out of a  42# AT 28" PSA and I draw almost 29"s so bow was 44#s or so and they flew perfect. Get the 2000s and cut to 28.5-29"s and put 175 up front. You will not be dissapointed. The 3000s cut to 30"s and 225 may fly for ya but I believe they will be too stiff even than. Shawn
