New Crusader ordered - need arrows
I've been reading the forum for about 6 months and never could remember my password. Finally solved that problem.
I just want to say that you guys are evil<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>. I talked to Chad last week and purchased a Crusader. My wife could not understand why I needed a new bow, and a long bow at that. I've been shooting a compound for about 10 years and was bitten by the traditional bug this summer. This forum convinced me to buy the Crusader. I looked at at least 10 different boys and bowyers. I have to say that Chad (even though he's not the bowyer)was the most responsive and informative person I contacted.
Now for the help, I need to choose some arrows, both wood and aluminum. The set-up is as follows: Crusader 64", cocobola/Bolivian rosewood riser, yew limbs, Dynaflight string, 30.5" draw length, 61 to 62 # at 30.5",(125 grain head).
Talking to Chad and RRA they suggested 80 to 85# cedar arrows at 31.5". Going to the Easton on-line arrow chart gives a wide variety of choices.
Legacy Chart (modern longbow)
31" - 2117
32" - 2216
Standard Easton Chart (recurve)
31" - 2514 and 2317
32" - 2419 and 2317
Help!
