Default Arrow Weight?????

Can anyone tell me what the arrow weight for the Carbon Force Dominator's and the 200's is I checked the P.S.E. sight but it doesn't say.
I have a 28" arrow and am looking for the GPI's and total weight as well.

Check out bow jackson's page. At 28", 100 gr point and 3 4" vanes, you get 345 grains with an FOC of 10.2

Great site to keep bookmarked

Just set the other options at default and only take the weight of the 28" length . Divide by 28" and there you go. Raw shaft for 200's look to run 196 gr. or 7 GPI.

That sounds about right ! My 300's @ 28 " , 100 grain tips, and 4" feathers weighed apprx. 350 grains ! It seems like they were 7.9 gpi !

Just a warning......they shoot great.....but split real bad on the nock ends ! The newer ones have a different finish than mine and may hold up better .....not sure ! But I had a lot of mine split on the nock end .....even with Easton nocks installed (was worse with the PSE nocks) !!
