gselkhunter I agree with an heavy arrow. I have used a XX75 2219 30" with a 100 gr. Thunderhead since 1997, when I bought my Martin Fury. That bow is 31" draw with a short overdraw shooting a 30" arrow. The total weight of my arrow is right around 580 grains. I liked how fast the Fury could push a heavy arrow. The Pro Shop owner wanted me to try some carbons and he even gave me some for free to try, but I could shoot the 2219's at 270 f/s with my bow cranked to 83 pounds max. I hunted with the poundage between 75-78#, and still getting around 260 f/s. In 2000 my bow limbs broke and Martin replaced them for free, but I couldn't crank up the poundage any more. The bow is suppose to be a 60-80# bow. But with the new limbs it will only go to 68 pounds max. It slowed me down some, shooting that same arrow I know get only around 250 f/s. I still like my Fury, but it is so noisy compared to all the new bows out now, and the shock that it generates (even with it decked out in Limb Savers) is very noticeable. I don't go through bows like most archers and will keep that bow. Heck if I ever draw out on moose in Idaho I will most likely use that bow. I also plan on keeping it handy with me as a backup bow. If something ever happens on a hunt with my current bow, instead of going home empty handed or waisting a day or two to go get my bow fixed I can pick up my old Fury and go hunting with confidence. I do want to try the carbons (again) in my Swichback but I am worried about arrow weight, so who knows I might be shooting aluminums after all?
