RyanH Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Re: Did I get the right arrowz??? IM SURE THEY WILL WORK! I SURE LIKE MY GOLDTIP 5575 XT'S THOUGH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrud Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Re: Did I get the right arrowz??? I would say the 400's. I shoot 66 pounds at 28" on an XTEC and all 340's were way too overspined for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrud Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Re: Did I get the right arrowz??? Not for me...125 grain tips on 340's kicked badly. They grouped, but they would not make bullet holes and overall I was very unhappy with their performance. Just be prepared to have a pretty slow arrow flight. I think, at 66 pounds and 28", I was only around 240 or less with my 340's. If you can add enough weight to it (tip), then they'd be alright, as JB said. That is why I think I've settled on Carbon Express rather than Gold Tip. I'm real borderline between 55/75's and 75/95's. I should really go with 75/95's, but I don't want to go that heavy. I'm good (with room for more draw weight and length) with CX300's, and they are the weight I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrud Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Re: Did I get the right arrowz??? But you could noticeably notice the arrow kicking (left I believe, might have been a polish left too). An arrow making bullet holes will penetrate better for hunting, rather than one that is still flying erratically when hitting the animal. Don't want an entrance behind the front shoulder and an exit out the rear end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrud Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Re: Did I get the right arrowz??? I put your information in on Beman's Shaft Selector and it says 400's. I made the mistake of getting 340's also. If they aren't cut yet, you can leave them longer to also help limber them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
