Need help selecting the right arrow

Hello Gentlemen. I am new here but have been reading posts for about a year.

The question I have is on arrow spine. I am shooting a Ben Pearson (Puma model)recurve. 45# 28in draw. With 29in carbon express terminator litehunter arrows 45# to 60#. with 125gr broadheads.

I feel i am over spined and was wondering if ya'll had any sugestionsfor new arrows. Thanks!

you can change the spine of your arrow by adding weight to the front to weaken it up a bit, i just added 100 grains of weight to my carbon express heritage 150 arrows and now they fly awsome, i found that the gold tip weights screw into the carbon express inserts, so all you have to do is buy the weights and the tool to install them.

Went to the pro shop and got radial X weave STL Hunter 200 arrows cut at 29in. They seem to shoot better. Thanks jrsy

I am using a Ben Pearson Cougar 55# at 28" and shooting carbon express terminators rated for 55-70 and seem alright. I have some easton 2317 off of my other bow that shoot well but fly slow. They have good penetration on target though. Hunting with the carbon's so far and plan on buying new ones after season.
