Shaft Spine too stiff

My arrows are stiff by .020 according to OnTarget2. I just went to the archery place and tested my draw weight and it is 66.3. I am shooting 28.5 inch XT Hunter 7595 with a 125 grain tip. Switchback XT at 29"

Scratch that, I forgot to switch the box checked target, to hunting....I am dead in the middle..[&:]

For hunting it is better to have shafts a little stiff anyway so that is why OnTarget2 showed it like that when you had the box checked for "target".

I'd rather have the .02 stiff than dead on.

As RB stated you are better off being a little stiff for hunting. It aids in the arrow's penetration due to less loss from the arrow deflecting on impact.
