I think you are right!
That group is as pretty as your bow!

I used to shoot that exact same arrow setup out of my 50# Savannah, but moved to 2016 at 28".

Good shooting, Shane!    :thumbsup:    

Just as a sidebar note, you could consider finding a slightly lighter bow. A bow in the 40's will be more than enough for most game you'll encounter. Your bone structure is still growing and all the joints are at a fairly vulnerable state. I'm not trying to be a spoilsport and understand all your passion for archery. Believe me, I was there at your age. I did disregard all the  advice from older shooters and kept shooting those heavy bows almost every day. As  result, I have a bad shoulder on my bowarm and a creaky elbow joint on my right. And I'm only 37. I know, it feels like lightyears away for you but eventually you'll get here. The most I can pull now is around the 50# mark, anything more is too painful in the long run.

As said, just another opinion from an old fart.

All the best for your archery!

barking mad, i in no way want to disregaurd your opinion, but i think i will stick with the 50# bow, since i can shoot it easily. i went from a 60# compound to the 50# longbow, and i shoot both smoothly with no problems. but thanks  :archer:
