63# BBO I built last winter.  Cedar arrows and ace standard heads.  I love this combo, it flies well and hits hard.

I'm using a 58# Great Northern Fireball. I'm shooting 580 gr POC shaft, 3 5in feathers, with 145gr Abowyer boneheads. Earlier this season I killed a deer with the same setup except I used a 580gr Redhead carbon light with a 100gr Simmons shark with a 75gr insert, although I'm not sure why I chose that arrow on that particular day.
