choosing arrow
« on: October 09, 2009, 05:23:00 PM »
Looking for advise on choosing an aluminum arrow for my BW 58" 49# @ 28" recurve. The arrows will be 29" with 125 or 150gr head. I read lots of threads on the subject but still not sure what to use.

Thanks for your replies; I have some of the sizes mentioned here fletched with vains. ( for my compounds over the years ) I will get them refletched with 5" feathers and see how they fly.

Between 2016 and 2018 you also have 2114,2212,2115. After 2018 its 2213,2115,2020 then 2117. You should be able to find the one that works with the length and point weight you want.
Bowhunting is "KILL and EAT" not "Catch and Release".....Semper Fi!
