Rayzorp Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 If you go to the easton web site, they have a nice chart that can help you as well. As does Goldtip for their carbon lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeramie Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 IMHO you cant go wrong with Goldtip arrows. They are very consistent, durable, and are at a good price. If I were using your setup (which I was recently) I would shoot a 5575. I had a McPherson Mark 9, 60lb at a 28" draw. I shot 5575's out of that bow for years with a lot of luck. I then updated to a 70lb bow and continue to shoot 5575's. Even if you do crank it up even 10lbs a 5575 should be absolutely fine. They are a great all around arrow. Ive shot 3D with the Goldtip 5575 "Hunters." Even they are plenty good enough of an arrow. A few years ago I switched to a 5575XT shaft. They are a little straighter and will be far more accurate then I could ever shoot. Theres my $.02. I hope it helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause Im not being cheap about my arrows this year, Im going carbon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 So your saying that I should use the 5575's no matter what kind of arrows I get? Cause Im not being cheap about my arrows this year, Im going carbon! Jeramie is referring to just Goldtip arrows. Here's the sizing chart to review for choosing Goldtip arrows (if you decide to get them) for your set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 So your saying that I should use the 5575's no matter what kind of arrows I get? Cause Im not being cheap about my arrows this year, Im going carbon! Sorry, I guess ill clarify. Rhino was correct, id look into Goldtip. They are the only ones to offer 5575 arrows. They are fine for your setup and a fair range either direction after that. They aren't the cheapest arrows but are far from the most expensive too. You dont need to blow a ton of cash on arrows, especially when talking about Goldtips. Btw, the Goldtip 5575 (Goldtip is a brand) is a carbon arrow. They are very much worth the money and not much more than aluminum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
