Arrow advice
« on: July 19, 2010, 06:43:00 PM »
I just ordered Easton Blues 1916's. I'll be shooting a 40#@28" at a 30" draw on a center-shot bow with FF string. After ordering, I realized from lookin at some of the charts that they might be kinda light for my set-up. Anyone else with a similar set-up shootin 1916's? Will I be alright? Thanks for the help!

They might be okay. If they are too weak, all you have to do is build out the side/strike plate some which will make an arrow act stiffer. I've done it several times and it works great.

I get the feeling I'd be better off with 2016's so I actually called and switched my order. Thanks for the input!
