10 yards is a good start but work back to at least 20 yds bareshafting. New string may need a retune on the arrows.

150gr difference in point weight plus the extra gpi of the 5575 will slow the arrow a bit for sure. But if your shooting 10yds I would think that is to close to see it.

If the 5575 are louder and they are that much heavier they are probably banging into the riser, that is not in tune. Try them at 20yds bareshafting.

I was shooting them around 15 and some at 20. After I got them decent I took some shots at 10. They fly decent at 20, just drop a good bit. Something I have to adjust to.

Here is the last group of the night at 10 yards.
