Default 40lb recurve and 2117 arrows

When I first decided to get me a custom Black Widow I got the demo bow at 40# and they recomended 2117 arrows with 125gr heads... I got bow and it shot great, made me look like I new what I was doing arrows flew like darts!!! So I made the plung and bought one... Mine is a 43# and I went ahead and bought a dozen more 2117's (29")... Anyhow Im getting good arrow flight...

Every time I read a post about arrows and bows. Every body pretty much recomends a lighter spine arrow for a 40# recurve somewere in the 2016-2018 spine...

Im just wondering why my bow and the demo bow I shot really liked the 2117...

I have a half dozen 2016 laying around from my old Bear Kodiak Mag that is 52# and it shot the 2016 great...
