C - I' m shooting around 55 pounds with a 32 1/2" 2216, using 125 gn tips. I don' t know what idiot was in charge of setting the recurve spines on their chart [:' (], but following the standard Easton chart will set you up with an arrow that' s w-a-y overspine. Hit the Legacy chart on Easton' s website. That chart is MUCH closer to real life.

Your friend should be shooting something like a 2117 or 2215. 2413 is just too stiff. 2315 is even worse.

Jeff, sometimes my bum back won' t let me shoot my sticks. That' s when I pull out the ' orthopedic recurve,' aka the ProTec. Just ' cuz it' s got pulleys and cables don' t mean it' s got to be shot with sights. You do know, don' t you, that Fred Bear was crossdominant and he was a pretty fair instinctive shot. Just a thought. [8D]
