What are you going to use it for? (3D, target, deer, moose, treestand, mountains...) Each application has different ideal arrows.

You could do a lot worse than the Eastman A/C Super Slim 340.

I set my Dad's 06 Tribute up for him, he is pulling 60lbs and shooting a 330 grain easton axisarrow right at 300 fps which is generating over 65 ft-lbs

The 340 deflection rating is way too stiff for a 27" shaft at 60#. I use it for a 29" arrow at 71# with a 125 grain head.
