Default How to set up my Arrow's Specs

I'm just now getting back to bow hunting. When I used to shoot, short aluminum arrows and overdraws were the rage. Last year I was shooting my Browning Bridger 65% let off bow at 70# draw w/ PSE carbon force 400's and 125Gr broadheads. To make easier hunting shots I've decided to drop back to 55# draw and use PSE carbon force 100 arrows. BTW the arrows are about 30-31" long.

My question is, can someone explain what weight tips I should use and how draw poundage and an arrow's effectiveness are related. The old bow shop I went to was OK, but when I asked the owner what weight broadheads to shoot and what poundage to pull he said it doesn't matter. I know this isn't true. Can someone break it down for me and get me up to date please.

Also, is this a good set up?
