Default RE: Bare shaft testing and spine?

The bow is a Check-Mate Raven @ 55#. My draw is 27"'s. The arrows are bare fiberglass shafts that I am paper tuning. I now realize this may be a bad idea. Tonight, I am going to fletch a couple and see howe they fly. My brace height is currently at 8-1/4"...I will check to see were the limit is for this bow. Last night I tried 125gr and 145gr tips on a bare fiberglass shaft that weighed in at ~390gr before adding the point. I am shooting split fingers using a black widow style release. I might be able to trim off a 1/2 inch or so, I'll know when I get home.

Thanks for responding...any additional info you could provide would be great.

Thanks again
Brian
