I shoot a 49lb cut to center longbow using 35/55's cut to 29.25" with a 50 grain brass insert and 150 grain point.  Great Flight!

GT 35/55 cut to 29" BOP. 50 grain brass insert and 175 grain point. Works great in all my modern and vintage bows from 45-50# using Dacron or Fast Flight strings.

I shoot 3555s cut to 29" with 100 grain steel screw in glue on inserts with 125 grain woodsmans out of my pch blackwidow 51# @ 28" and I draw 27", and have great flight with them.
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.
