What kind of arras you shooting?
Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.

Try some tapered 11/32 to 5/16, 125-135 gn point weight. I added a footed shaft to mine and got 600 grain arrows. The bow is deadly silent, 53# at 28.

Good Luck

Heritage CE 150 cut to 29"s and 100 grain brass insert and at least 125 to 175 grain point for a total point weight of 225 to 275. I suspect if the bow is high performance than you will need right around 225-250 up front. Shawn
