Default Relatively stupid question.

How hard will it be on my bow to shoot a 350 grain arrow as a hunting arrow?

I plan on switching from my current arrows (FMJ's) to something different (Maximas) fairly soon. They are considerably lighter, which is what is concerning me. With my draw length, and without shooting a heavier head, I can only acheive 350.5 grains.

I understand that the bow might be a bit louder, but I doubt it will be a significant jump in noise to concern me. The KE between the two arrows with be comparable despite the weight differences.

I'm just concerned with over-stressing my bow.

Any thoughts?
