Nice bow!

If that UL Pro 500 really weighs that much, you know that arrow/head combo at 70lbs will void your warranty? It will also be way underspined.

At 70lbs, if you shoot a 27" GT 55/75 with a blazer vane, and 100 grain head, you will be much better spined, andat about 285fps........just about the perfect speed for whitetails. If you really want to go faster, and Ultralight Pro 400 will spine about the same and end up just about at the 5gpp limit, should do roughly 290 for you.
+1, I had similar thoughts in my head. Not sure WHY everyone wants the LIGHTEST arrow they can get. What you gain in speed, you lose in forgiveness, tunability, KE and Momentum.

There nice, Brian, I can't wait until a nice AM35 in a 29" draw 70# shows up on the USED market for $450-500, because I'll be shooting one then!!!
