Default Arrow Problem?

I bought 6 Victory V Force 300arrows last night. I took them out and shot them at 20and 30 yardsthey hit good at 40 they start to go a little right and at 50 they are about 4"-5" right. That is with field tips. I am shooting a Guardian at 60lbs, 28in draw my arrows are 27in with 3 blazers, 100gr tips. Can someone tell me why this is happening?

Could be a number of things ranging from wrong spine arrows to bow tune to shooter.

Or a combination of all of the above.

I have 2 GT 5575 and they don't hit right like that. Did the shop sell me the wrong spined arrows?

If they are a 300 spine arrows yes they did.


For your draw lenght, draw weight and arrow lengthyou need something in the 400 spine maybe even a 500 spine.

Edit the 5575 are a 400 spine.

Thank You. He said the 300 and 400 were the samearrows just different numbers on the shaft. I will be getting new arrows Monday. Will Carbon Express Maximas be ok set up the same way. 27", 100gr heads, 3 blazers or should I go a little longer? Thanks for the help.

yeah right they have those numbers for a reason, he is an idiot and if it was me I would be finding another shop preferrable one that knows what they are talking about.

Yes the CX 250's are a 400 spine shaft and should work well.

I won't be going back to that shop. I had not been there for a few years so I stopped to look around ( Iguess Iwasn't missing much if he can't even sell a person the right arrows)and decided to give the Victory arrows a try. I think I will get some Maximas set up the same way. Thank You again!

Could be bad centershot, bad spine. Have you paper tuned or walk back tuned the bow?

I didn't have the problem with shooting right until I got the Victory arrows. My 2 GT 5575'sdon't shoot right. I shot a couple CXTerminator Lite Selects and they didn't shoot right either.
