Arrow Sizing for Hoyt Gamemaster

I just bought a new Hoyt Gamemaster II with a 45# draw I have a 30 inch draw to which I calculated the actual draw for me will be 51#. The arrows I have in mind are a XX75 Easton super slam 2215 cut to a 28.5 length. My question is what do you guys think of this setup and what would you change to make it better thanks.

How are you shooting 28.5" arrows with a 30" draw? Better scale the bow to be sure of the weight. The Gamemasters have a history of being heavier than marked.

I'm assuming you meant a 30.5" arrow. BTW; what's the point weight?

I have exactly the same set-up; 45# GMII and I draw 30". The bow actually draws 29# at 28". Most everyone reports that GMs daw about 4-5lbs. heavier than marked.
I shoot 400 spine carbons cut to 31" with 200 grains up front and the bareshaft great. I have a Centerest Flipper by NAP so it is set-up pretty much center shot. A 2117 flys well also so I think the 2215 would work great with a little tuning.

I shoot a Dorado with GMII limbs at 53#. I shoot Easton XX78 2117's with a 150 grain tip and three offset 5 inch feathers cut to 28 inches. Fly very well for me with a tab and Hoyt's factory string. On the string I have a floss nock and Hush puppies. All I have for a side plate is seal hair.
