Default i need an IBO finished arrow, who makes it?

who makes an arrow that when finished will meet IBO but the arrow needs to be 30" long. I'm trying to see what i could expected if i got the Dream Season X-Froce. i have a 32" draw but could maybe make due with the 31" cause they run long from what my pro shop told me.
my past two bows have been 30" arrows but if i want 5gr/lb at 70lbs but a 31" draw and 30" arrow how can i achieve that? i'm already shooting 75gr. heads and blasers on my carbon express maxima 3D selects.

Just tell me what your arrow needs to weigh.

There is no fps rule in IBO that I know of.

You could build an x-cutter that weighs 397gr. (at 30")that would be a great IBO arrow.

Well, if you are drawing at 32" I'm guessing you are either pretty tall or have monkey arms. Either way, the Dream Season at that draw is going to be a little awkward IMO. They are pretty short bows, so at that length, may be pretty tricky to shoot. As for them running 1" long, I would be somewhat surprised if you would get that much of a discrepancy between listed DL and actual, but you never know. Going to be tough to get an arrow at IBO with your length and be properly spined. Just my .02 cents, others know far more than me, so jump in guys!

Good luck with that....

I'd take one that weight at 27" long (shaft).

Screw in points is what kills it. The insert and tip I'm using weighs 111gr by itself.

I've got some GT Pro 22's I got from Matt/PA that are 350gr. @ 28" (maybe 28.5"). That might be your ticket.
