Getting set up in bow hunting

[ehenry]

Hey guys, I was just wandering if anyone could give me some advice on getting set up in bowhunting. Ive already got a bow, a browning tornado with trophy taker arrow rest and a tru glo three pin site. I am needing some help in getting arrows and what size shafts to buy. What type of fletching do I need to get and what is the best broadheads to buy.

I am no expert but there definately are some on here. If you will state you draw lenght and draw weight there are some guys on here who can tell you the exact spined arrow you need. Sounds like you have a pretty good setup as far as the bow goes.

Zach is correct, if we had your DL and DW we could tell what spine you needed. As far as telling you which arrow is best to buy, well that cannot be done. There are so many good arrows on the market, it really boils down to what you like the most. I am a big fan of Goldtip arrows, they are very durable and resonably priced. However, I hear they might be going under again.

I would suggest you stop by your local pro shop and seeing what they recommend as far as which brand to shoot, they will be able to tell you what spine you need.

Just don't go overboard, you can spend a bunch of money on arrows. You sound like you are just starting to get into archery and bowhunting and I would suggust you start out with something in the middle of the road and easy on the wallet. Once you really get into it, you will be like everyone else on here, spending your last dime on the latest and greatest.

I appreciate it guys, Im not really sure what the spin of the arrow does. Ive heard of it before but didnt know what all of it meant. My draw length is 30 and my weight is 70.
