Default RE: Arrows...What do I need to do?

Gobbler, you're lucky. The fellow at your archery shop knows his business when it comes to traditional tackle. Your bow was made by AMARCO (American Archery Company) which was based in Illinois and went out of business in the late 70's, long before fastflite was invented. Consequently all their bows require dacron strings as the limb tips weren't reinforced for low stretch strings. I have a 66" 36# AMARCO Special which was their premier target bow at the time and it's still one of the sweetest shooters I've ever owned. Because all their shelves lack a radius, you'll either have to build up the shelf or better yet use a simple stick-on rest to realize the full potential of the bow.
