We are not using the new made up spine deflection numbers whick Carbon Express and PSE shaft and some others utilize today where the higher the the number the stiffer the spine.

Gotcha, even on the "Hunting" set-up on OT2, I'm seeing a 340 being good, but I agree, too stiff is definitely easier than too weak when trying to get that thing tuned. I've put .340's in my couple of 60# bows and gotten it done, but I'm not even about to try with a .400 in my 72# Katera XL, because I know how that would turnout, and I don't have any hair left to pull out!!!
