Default how can you figure out how much your arrows weigh?

If anyone knows about how many grains 28" arrows weighs, with 100 grain tip, a wrap, 3 blazer veins and a nock would be appreciated!

I dont know how much they weigh...Ill mail you my scale if you mail it back



Maybe you should just creat a poll with a bunch of weights andhave eveyone vote on how much they think it weighs...then which ever weight got they most votes....thats the weight!!!


Problem solved

No that is just the shaft, but just guessing your nock, insert wrap and wg=hat not you should be right around 400g.....+ or -a couple grains

According to OT2 the 340's weigh 9.53gr/in. , the insert 16gr. and "g" nock is 7gr.
Blazer's are 5gr/ea.

A complete 28" arrow is304gr., but that'sWITHOUT the wrap. figure 6grs.for a wrap. Just ADD your tip weight.

I'm NOT sure if these are the spec's for the "Nano"...it does not say.
Hope this helps.

You cantry theOnTarget program for free. It'll tell you weight of arrow, FOC, optimum spine for different shaft lengths, etc. It's only $10 to buy the basic program, well worth the money.
