Just wondering how much eveyones hunting arrows weigh...Thats total...nock, insert, fletchings, tip...everything included on your arrow when its in the quiver, ready to hunt...ready to fly toward some lungs
Ok heres a question Im sure some of you can answer...
Like I said my arrows are ~365 grains
I shoot a Browning Myst at 27" draw and 63#
Is this the right arrow weight for me? This is something Im not really familiar with in archery, and I dont really know anything about optimal arrow weight. If I tried to tackle this it would just open a big can of worms.....So any expert advice would be apprecieated
What I did when I got my last new bow (at a local shop) I shot different weight arrows through the chrono until I found the one that gave me the most ke...I don't know if this is correct but I have had no problems doing it this way. I am fixing to have to do it again as I am waiting on a new bow.I will do it the same way. I am sure if this is wrong, someone will let us know as on this forum I hear the guys talking about momentum, I always thought I wanted the most ke I could get????

I haven't made up my mind exactly what I want to do yet.
Currently my arrows weigh 434 grains.
They may weigh 459 grains this fall.
Or I may go even heavier.
Who needs speed anyway?
