Carbon Express Arrows

heys guy new here, had a question for anyone who shoots the Carbon Express Maximas, I shoot the 250s but got hold ofa couple 350s. the 350s in my bow seems to shoot a little higher. shooting a vectrix 28.5 D/L and 70# D/W. I looked around on the CarbonExpress website and see that the 250s are 8.0gr/in and the 350s are 8.9gr/in. Seems to me that the 350s would shoot a little lower being a heavier arrow but I found exactly the obvious. Would likeany input.Quite new to bow hunting so I am taking it all in. Thanks for the help!

were the 350's shorter making them lighter? did they have a lighter tip on them? different veines, inserts,knocks...was anything different?

Welcome to the forums!!

I would highly suspect the spine is the difference. At 70 #'s, unless you're shooting a short arrow, like 26"....you are underspined. The 350 is stiffer and the correct spine, allowing better transfer of energy to the arrow.

I wouldn't be surprised if the 350's are faster by a little bit.

I shoot the maxima hunter 350's.....incredible arrows.

They are the same length, same blazer vanes, same knoks, you litterly have to look at the number on the arrow to tell them apart. I do not know the exact length but I know they are longer than 26".

I loved the 250s but with the 350s shooting a little higher, I think I will go them. Looking at the Carbon express chart I need to be shooting the 350s.
