My arrows are only 27" long, so yeah, they are pretty short! I really think maybe I read too much here on the boards and in the mags. because some people put a lot of emphasis on certain things like foc and then you three guys are like we were with really no concern about what your foc is. It makes it hard to know what is "right" or wrong. Heck, I had no idea that I should probably be shooting 2 blade broadheads instead of 3 with my setup. I think I have learned a lot, but there is always something that pops up I have no clue that I should worry about. Very frustrating!
