Default RE: Too Stiff a spine theory exploration

FL, looks like solid real world evidence to support what I'm thinking.

So, based on this, if one wants to shoot the heaviest carbon possible without adding internal weights, the GT Big Game should fit the bill quite nicely, no? At 10.7 grains per inch, with a 100 grain tip and 3 four inch feathers, this would give me a finished arrow right around 430 grains, about 7 grains per pound adjusted for my draw, and still be moving around 280 fps.

I know carbon-tech has the Rhino, but it's straightness tolerance is only .006", I believe the Easton Evolution is around ".004 or 5 and I've no idea how much it weighs per inch, not aware of many other heavy weight carbons. Anyone? The GT big game are .003", with a 5 grain weigh tolerance.
