Arrow selection help
« on: October 02, 2007, 03:15:00 PM »
I just bought a Black Widow PMA II. It is 62" long 50 lb @ 28". I shoot a 29 1/2" arrow. The booklet calls for an 85-89# spine arrow. Is this correct.?? I shot a 2114 and it seemed ok, would a 2117 be more in line. I shoot 125 gr heads. Thanks, Scott

Probably don't need to go that high, but won't hurt if you do.  Black Widows are cut past center if I remember correctly.  With a bow cut past center, you can pretty much overspine as much as you want.  I would think 65-70# spine would work well at your draw length.  It's a good place to start anyway.  Good luck.
