Default Easton Axis arrows

Anybody know what size shaft Easton Axis Arrows I should go with. I am shooting an Extreme at 62# and a 28.5" draw. I think the arrows I am currently shooting are 27"?

I am not sure if these arrows are listed on the chart down at work, due to the fact that they are so new.

Thanks for your help
Mike

Probably 400's. I went with 340's at my 64 lb., 29.5" draw because I wanted a little heavier arrow. I could have gone with either.

Thanks everyone. It looks to be like 400s. I checked that sight also, but 61 -62#'s is right on the edge, so I like to get your opinions.

Anyone else have a reccomendation, please post it.

If in doubt, I like a little heavier, stiffer arrow for hunting. Just my opinion. For instance, I shoot GT 7595's out of a 63# bow with 125 gr tips. Great flight, decent weight.

I would go with the 400 as well. I am shooting 65lb with a 27" shaft with good results with the 400. Give them a whirl, they are an awesome shaft!!

Same advice here. If ever on the borderline then go with the stiffer arrow. Today's high energy cams usually dictate the need for a stiffer arrow.

I called Easton a couple of weeks ago for th esame reason, to make sure I was shooint the corredt arrow. I am shooting an Outback at 68# 27" arrow and 75 grain heads. He resommended the 400's, however, he also stated that if I were to go up to a 100 grain head and 70lbs I would need the 340's. Either arrow would work fine for my current setup. I am shooting the 400's & have absolutly no problems with them.They are flying beautiful. As said earlier, and stated by Easton, single cam bows tend to like a stiffer spine. Just my nickles worth. Thanks for listening.
