Default Arrow Weight Q's need help[ fast

I am going to go shoot some 3D targets today I need to know if I am shooting the right weight arrow.

Right now I am shooting Easton Gamegetter II arrows (31&quotwith 125 grain field tips. I also have several Tru-Flite 2117 (30&quot. Are the Tru-Flights going to be too light?
I tried using the calculator at bowjacskson but I wasn't sure about all the other weights they were asking for.

I have a 29inch draw and am shooting 65# on a BowTech Stalker.

Thanks,
Kirk

The mass weight of the arrow is plenty. The spine is way too light though. You should probably be shooting something closer to a 2315 or 2413. 2117's just ain't gonna get it. Maybe if you back the weight down to about 55 lbs. they'll work.

Do you think my 2219 are too light or was it just the 2117's? I would like to shoot my 2219's untill I can go get a new set of goldtip carbons.
