I am picking up a longbow this week. But want to stay traditional. I have scads of different alum arrorws over the years. And a few doz of carbon arrows.

I would like to get to the point of shooting good wood arrows. I really don't have time to make my own. But worried if I invest too soon, I won't find the arrow that shoots well and be out a bunch of money. Think I should just try some alum or carbons first?

Whats the min wieght I would want for a 45# draw? My carbons wiegh around 400gr. Think thats little light?
