Arrow question ??

Problem Child · 03-08-2005, 05:01 PM

I had a custom recurve built by a local bowyer. It's 56# @ 27.5". I shoot with a tab and one over, two under. What size shafts do I need to use ?? The Easton chart recommends 2117s but they sure ain't working for me. I actually aam getting decent flight out of 1916s but, I am concerned about the low weight. HELP

Thanks

Try 2018's. When I shot 55#, I got great flight with them. However my draw length is 29".

Wow, 1916 sounds lite.Try 2114 or 2213. You do have a short draw it might be O.K. Check out a arrow chart to be sure.

I use 2018's they fly great from my 51# long bow @ my 26" draw I have tryed 2016's and they fly great too. I'm staying with the 2018 for the weight. Also try a heaver head.
