Default Need a heavy arrow for hunting...advice

I'm new to traditional hunting and need some arrow advice. I shoot a 45# Wing recurve but have about a 29-30 inch draw so I think I am closer to 48-50 lbs. I would like to shoot a carbon arrow so that I do not have the hassle of worrying about straightness, sealing wood, etc. especially since I m just starting.
With a light draw weight, it makes sense to shoot a heavier arrow. I have some 125 grain Woodsman broadheads on a 23 grain insert that I can use.
Withfeathers, does anyone know of a heavy carbon arrow that would be suitable for this set-up? Maybe I should think about aluminum? If you could recommend a spine to start with that would be great too. I have everything I need to work with carbon because I've shot compounds for years so that's why carbon is in my head.
I like this site because of the practical experience of those of you who post. Thanks in advance for any info.
