i cant find the rite arrows for my switchback xt 400 are to heavy and so are 350 i dont know what to use
You need to post the bow weight and draw length. Length of the arrow and point weight, etc.

As for the weight of carbon arrows. Each maker has several different models in different weights and straightness tolerances among other things.There are carbon arrows that weigh 5.5 grains per inch, and there are some that weigh 12.5 grains per inch. As for spine, there is no way to make arecommendationas to what arrow you might shoot without the info asked for above.

You say a 400 is too heavy. By that I guess you mean mass weight; you're looking for more speed? Actually you would probably be better served using a .340 spine than .400. So in Easton arrows you'll be getting even more weight.

If what you want is more speed then get on the different arrow-maker websites and compare. Easton has their Litespeed series. GoldTip has their Ultralite series (very good arrows). On Gold Tip's website they have a link under "products/build your own arrow" that you can see what your arrow would weigh finished. Whatever you come up with just make sure you get the right spine and keep your total arrow weight to at least 325 grains. To check for spine you use their spine charts. Also, the GoldTips come in three different grades (tolerances); Expedition (Lower price), XT's (middle) and Pro series. Depending on your pocketbook the XT's are the better buy.

Hope this helps

I shoot the Switchback XT. I have been using Gold Tip Pro Hunter 5575 with 2" blazer vanes and 100 Gr. Wasp Sharp Shooters. Total weight just under 400 gr. They fly really nice.
