which arrow
I just ordered a Elite GT500 27.5" 60# limbs and am thinking about shooting the new carbon express arramid arrows, which spine do you all come up with for that set up?
Thanks Trae

RE: which arrow
Start with something around a 400 spine and tune from there.

RE: which arrow
In CX the 250 spine should do the trick

Ditto! I'm shooting 250 aramids out of my 61# Airborne 82nd. They fly like a dart.

Just curious and not hijacking, but just what spine deflection is a CX 250? I wish they'd number these things right.

BG just from memory off the top of my head I'm thinking it was .390 something

They vary depending on which CX shaft - some of them are rated .417, some are .404, and some are .39x
Which frankly is stupid, but...

Thanks for the info. In general, though, we're looking at right around a 400 spine. That's what I thought they'd be.
