I'd opt for a CX 3D Select 200, I can bet you'll be very impressed with their speed, tolerences and performance!

At 5 grains per pound and that is with finished arrow weight your options are very limited. Sorry, no recommendations from me.

Sorry, I was being sarcastic with my previous post in that I am not a believer in arrows that light for that poundage. I just don;t subject my equipment to the 5 grain per pound thing. For serious 3D tournament shooters I guess that is what is called for? I basically am a hunter, an old fogie and just shoot 3D at local club shoots so I will zip my lip for the rest of this thread.[X(] My appologies PreacherTony.

PT, I have the same draw length and shoot Maxima Hunters 350s without any issues. They are one tough arrow, straight and fly well. You wont be disappointed. Best of luck.
