Default RE: what arrow do you use?

Arrow: Speed Pro Max 5.5 GPI
Components: Speed Pro Nocks 4.5 GN Speed Pro Broadheads 55 GN Bohning Blazer Vanes 5GN each
Total Gn weight: 260 Gn

shooting a Newberry B1 at 70# 29" DL.
Like a guided missle at 355 FPS.

I dont recomend any one using the same set up unless they are shooting 55 LB or less DW
or shooting a bow that is warranted to shoot sub IBO weight arrows.

Sniper and 4Wheel!

Why such heavy arrow's? I'm sure you could shed somre of this wieght and still have good success with hunting any sized game animal.
