Hi niehenke -

Simple answer YES! Well there are two arrow speed specification you can meet either one fist one is 5grains per pound of bow pull (66x5=330) so anything above 330grains total arrow weight is ok! Second rule or speed no faster that 280fps! Since your arrow is 367 grains and your bow is 66 pounds you are ok! If the arrow weigh was 329grains you would be in trouble as you would not meet either rule!

Second question yes one pin is fine as IBO has the bow hunter release which is a fixed pin sight! Your equipment may fit into several classes.

Many IBO archers shoot and qualify in several classes and make the final decision of which class to compete in at the world event. So yes you can qualify in more than one class. Only catch is if you are a Semi-Pro or Pro archer once you achieve those levels there is no turning back!

By the way! Sounds like you have the perfect setup for 3D target shooting, depending on where you want to go with it! Outdoor 3D target shooting has its down falls - You have wind, temperature, humid and not to mention the obstructions and mind games but it is all in fun and if you don't take it to seriously it can be a great way to justget outdoors and have some fun! It is allot like golf your worst enemy is yourself!

Enjoy
