arrow selection help

I need help on what arrows I should get. I will be shooting a 55# samick volcano. My draw is only 26 inches though so it is around 49 pounds at that length. I have always shot carbon or carbon/aluminum arrows out of my compound, but I have no preference with the recurve. I'm looking for spine suggestions, shaft length and point weight. I know I may have to play with the length and point weight while tuning, but just looking for a good starting point.
Thanks

That calculator is a good tool to use. My SWAG here, as I have similar draw as yours, is a 28" 2016 with 125 grains in front. Tweak with heavier points or cutting down the shaft as needed.

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

thanks. I played with the calculator some and it looks like 1916 or 2016s depending on length. I may try the 2016s at 28 and 125 tips.
