I guess I'm just an old fart who is not technically savvy, so I keep it simple. On my 65# bows I shoot 135 grn points and on those under that weight I shoot 125 grn points. I shoot woodies.

Mostly the same think I've been using since the 80s...

135 grain head....aluminum adapter and aluminum inserts.

175 grain total head.

At times I've used 200 and 225 but nothing any higher than that.

I am also the odd guy.  Almost always use either 125 grains or 150 grain heads.  Used them for years,  have always worked well.  I do need to figure out all the FOC stuff,  and give it a try soon.  Perhaps this summer.
