Default RE: arrow wieght?

ORIGINAL: hurley0816

do you include the weight of the broadhead when weighing? and can an arrow be to heavy? if so how heavy is to heavy like whatgrains per lbs?
You can get a digital scale for around 10 or 15 dolars to weigh the entire arrow. Mine came in at 390 grains and I plan on lightening it up to around 320 grains. That's about all that you need to penetrate a whitetail in order to slice through a couple of lungs and possibly a heart if you have the perfect shot. The only reason I am going lighter however is to gain some more speed out of my Black Ice. If you have a "speed bow" then by all means shoot a 400 grain arrow!

Happy hunting
