Broadhead weight helps you get the right spine on your arrow. Like others have said you can play with head weight to get better FOC as long as you stay in spine.

Download OT2 for free for 5 days and play around with it. You can enter your set up and the arrow..... you can change everything to see what it does to your set up.

Look at my sig to see what I am shooting. I am shooting .350 spined arrows cut to 27.5", according to OT2 I need to use 125 grain heads to get the perfect spine. 100 gr heads and I am a bit stiff. But using the increased head weight gives me another 3% FOC and I only lose 8fps. I would raither have the FOC than speed
