unless you are shooting fingers and yoyr bow is improperly tuned a stiff spine is a whole lot less of an issue than most people will make it out to be.
If the spine to weight ratio is more than what the charts call for dont make a big hill of beans
and there is certanly no reason to change your point weight unless you are underspined then you would want to go down in weight on the front

there are a lot of misconceptions concerning stiff arrows and arrow flight
most of these misconceptions comes from these old schoolers who still shoot traditonal and still shoot with fingers where arrow spine is very inportant.

if your bow has a mild to medium cam you may want to consider going down in spine, but if you are shooting a hard cam which most bows on the market these days areyou should have no problems shooting a super stiff arrow.

there will be a lot of disagreements on this but that is my story and I am sticking to it!
