To give a comparative example, how many folks on these forums do you think shoot at or above the AMO recommended minimum arrow weight for their bows?
About 99% , Its hard to get an arrow below that in weight , with any kind of tip , that will spine correctly .
You are joking right? Take any Internal Component Carbon with the correct spine for the individual's setup and I can almost guarantee you that it is going to be under the AMO recommended minimum arrow weight for that person's particular setup.
With aluminums it is much more difficult to accomplish because they are generally heavier per inch. However, if FOC is ignored then a 100 grain tip on a thin walled/wide diameter aluminum can be below AMO recommended specs. When I get home I will grab a few arrows and weigh them to verify this.
