Default Arrow Suggestion

I am in the market for some new arrows! I just really dont know what would work best for my bow.

I have a 08' Hoyt Kobalt set at 45 pounds. My draw-length is 25 inches. Right now I am shooting 213 FPS which isnt too bad considering my draw-length and draw weight. I am shooting carbon express thundestorms 30-50 and I wanna try something new.

I have had people tell me to keep the heavier arrow because of my draw weight, but I would like something just a little lighter to get my speed up to maybe 230.I know I shot the Easton Redlines at a shop with my same setup and it was shooting 260 fps...which blew my mind haha but I really dont know whats out there...so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank YOU!

check out carbon force 100's, easton lightspeed 500's, high country speed pro 5.5's.

the carbon force's are pretty tough arrows - they are woven carbon.

If you like what you saw with the Redlines then there is nothing wrong with them. Another choice would be Gold Tip Ultralite 600. A 500 spine would be OK, but is actually too stiff. I shoot UL-500's at 27" up to 63#. I am presently shooting them at 45# and they are too stiff for my setup.
