should i shoot the 340 or 400?

Dubbya · 02-24-2004, 02:16 PM

this is another attempt to make my setup the best i can. I can't decide which arrow I should shoot. I can't decide between a Easton Axis st 340 or 400. Here is my setup: 03 razortec, 64-68 pounds, 100 gr. muzzy 3blade, d-loop... and a drop away rest, can't decide which one yet, MZE, TT shakey, or something else. Please help with the arrow selection. thanks.

Is this for 3d, hunting, or both? What is your draw length, or better yet, do you know what length of arrows?

Dubbya · 02-24-2004, 02:24 PM

sorry guys, this is a hunting setup (whitetail, muleys, and antelope...maybe turkey). My total draw length is 29-29.5 that is before the d-loop (so figure as you will). thanks

I personally would opt for the 340's for hunting. Go to http://home.att.net/~sajackson/archery.html and select arrow FOC and weight. Then select the axis arrow. Enter the info and it will give you weight and FOC. This should help determine what is best for your particular setup. I also like to use the KE calculator. It is on there as well. Hope this helps.

Thats funny. Living in North Texas, I have taken alot of heat over the years for going to LSU and being a huge fan. Alot of Sooner fans here too! But FINALLY I have some bragging rights.

that's funny, i didn't even realize you were from flower mound, i am from mckinney (originally wyoming) but i've been in the south for about 7 years.

Arrow weight (in grains) devided by draw weight = ?.??

As long as the "?.??" is in the 5's, you're ok.

Example......5.49, 5.77, 5.91......something like that.

Just a good rule of thumb to avoid a major headache.
