What;s the difference between 3-49's and 3-71's (and for goodness sakes don't say "22"..lol)? Is it weight?

Let's say I was gonna get a few a/c/c's made up to just hunt whitetails with, this fall. 71lbs. draw weight on the Ally.....29" draw....and I think my arrows are 27-1/2". What arrow would I get? I don't mind a heavier arrow AT ALL.....and I'm wondering what would be the DOWN side of choosing the heavier arrow.

Technical difference is actually spine. They happen to weigh more too with the stiffer spine because there is more material. Assuming you are using 100 grains up front, you want a 3-60 spine ACC. A 3-60 w/ blazers and 100 grains up front at 27.5" will end up right around 400 grains total weight.
