Steve,
I see your post and guess the bow has made the trip.  So how do you like it?  Pretty riser huh!
 I had really good results with GT 5575 however, I was drawing 28 1/2 and they were cut to 29 1/2 to bop. Not sure how the 2219's will work after you cut them to your length but if they do fly for you they should have a great total wt. with broadheads of 135gr plus insert wt.[ I use 75gr steel however lots of guys will tell you not to use them as there were a bad bunch that hit the market] to completely ventilate some of those hogs  :biglaugh:
If you have got the bow please drop me a PM and let me know how you like it.
Looking forward to that new Wall Tent.

Steve, how close to center is the bow cut and are you shooting a hard (FF type) string?  How long do you want your arrows cut and how much point weight?  I'm assuming you want to shoot woods.
Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

It is pretty close to center and it does have a hard string.I have my arrows cut 28'' and I put as much weight up front as I can.

Steve, read Bucky's thread "350 up front?" He shoots a 48# ThunderStick Mag he draws 26"s. His  arrows cut to 27"s 35/55 Gold Tips.My Horne's Traditionalist is 50#s @ my 27 ''draw. I shoot 35/55 Gold Tips cut to 28" with 190 grains up front up to 250 grains the arrows fly like darts. She also likes Blackhawk vaporcarbonwoods 3000 45/60# cut to 28"s I think the 190's fly the best on those. Hope I helped.
