I would suggest using yellow carbon express weight tubes - they'll ass 80-100 grains to your total arrow weight then I'd go to a Slick Trick, a Muzzy or a Steel Force .... a good non-mechanical of your choice.


My uncle called me a few days ago and had shot and lost a big 8 point near St Charles MO. he was shooting 2215 arrows I think and 100 gr mechanicals. I told him what I'm telling everyone here - go heavier and fixed. He went to a 2219 shaft I think he said plus he went to 150 grain 3 blade fixed blade heads and yesterday afternoon, walking to his stand he had a buck walking towards him. He shoots the buck in the brisket, drops it down, it runs 30 yards and dies, he calls me on the cell phone and says he don't know where the arrows is and I told him to stick his finger inthe big hole and he says yep, the nock is right there !

nice 9 point, not a monster, one of the blades he said on the head was bent but dang, he shot through a brisket bone and got great penetration. He was shooting a cross bow

he went heavier, and fixed and his penetration issues dissappeared like magic
