I just found 17 XX75 2219(must be around 10yrs old being how I forgot about them)arrows out in my garage my ? is have any of you guys tried this arrow,I have some 2016's,340,400 and 50/55 PC arrows that I use now and before I cut them I just wanted to know how they work,all my bows are at 50-53 lb at 28" draw.Iam thinking they might be a tad heavy but might work...

I dont want to strip off the fletching's and find out they wont work and I know the try-em thing...

I think they will be way to stiff.

At my draw weight of 73lbs I could get away with shooting them but at your draw weight I wouldn't think so. Your arrow has got to flex some and I'm thinking they won't flex much.

On the other side of the coin though you would be throwing some weight to your punch.

All in all though I wouldn't want that as my set up. JMO.

They'd be a little on the stiff side.A 2219 spines around 95#

I use em in a 66lb longbow. And iwth a 145gr head. Way too stiff for your 53lb bow. Unless you had 250gr head.
