Default Can somebody run these numbers for me?

XX78 SuperSlam, 28" with 4" feathers and 100 grain points....Coming off of a 2008 VectrixPlus set at 71 #'s w/ a 30" draw.

I've got this damn wiggle I can't get rid of, and I'm thinking it may be spine related. If someone w/ OT2 could run those for me, I would really, really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Duuuhhhhh......it's a 2512.

I ran it in AA and OT2(hunting box checked)and both have your spine in the optimum range. While I don't think you have a bad FOC (11.5%)you may want to try a 125 grain point and see what happens. A little higher FOC may be just what you need to give that last little bit of stabilization and it still keeps you in the optimum spine range.

Stupid question from me, but did you paper tune the bow good? I used to shoot the same shaft combo a while back, and I did ok with the 100 grain head, due to the fact that your inserts (aluminum) weigh in at @ 40+ grains. I would take a good look at the rest. Also, I assume you are shooting a release.

Good luck, I hope you get "straightened" out!!!
