VtBowhunter Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? Your arrow should stick out 1" forward of the rest at full draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeviShot Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? Do you know what your draw weight is?You also need the right size arrows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbucks Posted January 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? i think its around 60-65 and i shoot a 2117 aluminum arrow..hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dartonman Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? I think the 2117 is too light...I would shoot a 2315 or carbon arrow like the goldtip 5575 shaft.....I would not shoot the 2117, really light choice of arrow, which in turn could damage your bow, or you........al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? I agree with Vt, and Dartonman. Sounds like your setup needs stiffer arrows like Darton suggested, and at full draw, like VT said, you want a little over hanging for broadhead clearance. You should try to get all your arrows the same weight, and cutting them all to the same length will certainly help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ODH Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? my carbon express arrows stick out about 4 inches or so past the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dg Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? There is nothing wrong with arrows sticking out past the riser. The key is to have a stiffer shaft the longer the arrow in relation to the broadhead weight.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Shooter Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Re: what size arrow??? The 2117's are stiff enough, if not to stiff. Personally I'd drop down to a 2213 or a 2312. If your about 5 inches beyond the riser or rest, your shooting a full length arrow. When the shaft is cut, it'll stiffen up, the shorter the arrow is cut. This is why you'll want to go with a thinner walled shaft. If you want graphite shafts, try a Goldtip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
