Default RE: What is the minimum amount of arrow weight per pounds of pull?

ORIGINAL: bucketmouthhauler

Right now I am shooting a 320 grain arrow and 78Lbs. Seems to be working great LOL My arrows really book. Just curous how heavy my arrows should be. Thanks

Guess I will add, My arrows are 27.5 inches and are pro-x-cutter ultralight gold tips, w/ 100 grain head.
I know I wouldn't shoot less than a 400grain arrow at game. In fact, I like 450-500gr. Penetrates much better than a light setup, quieter, and seems more accurate for me.

But in your case, how heavy they should be, is up to your manfacturer and you. I know PSE, bowtech and most companies tell you thats way too light. And might warp the cams, or crack the limbs. I know if I was you, I would shoot at least a 400gr arrow. But with your very short draw, you might be fine at 4gr/lb draw.
