Hey Gang, My son got a Predator Classic recurve not too long ago. Wondering what you folks shoot and what works for ya. I'm not much help on recurves, I primarily shoot Hill style bows.
Here are his Vitals -
Bow - 55 @ 28", with the velcro shelf pad its right on dead center shot. FF
Shooter - draws 27 3/4 - 28"
Arrow preference - GT Trad or CX Heritage about 30" BOP in the 550g total range.
Thanks
Eric

Eric, a Heritage 250 29" long with 175 gr head will put you very close. The GT 55/75 will also fly good but it won't weigh that much.
I shoot Easton 400's and Heritage 150's also out of my Predators
I draw 28" and shoot 53 & 54#. Let me know if I can be of any help.
Good shooting, Jerry

Thanks Jerry,
Whats your 150 setup like for length and weight?
I wish they made a Heritage that spined between 400-420

Eric, I have a Predator 51#@28"(my dl). I shoot Legacy 2018, cut 29.5 in with 150grn WWs, fly great, I also shoot GT5575s at 30" with 250grn total up front. The GTs are also weighted with weed eater line or 550 para cord. Hope this helps.

Eric, my 150's are 29" long and weigh 535grs with a 175gr
field point. The deflection on the 150's is .487 and is probably a little less with the 150gr head.
