Thanks, Mike that follows.  My tapered cedar, Ash and maple are spined mid 70's.  Hope they will push the Grizzly Instinct heads I just got.

I only began shooting in the fall of last year, but I had a bad experience already with a carbon arrow splintering and one of the splinters became lodged deep in my hand for a time.  After that I switched to aluminum and haven't looked back.
