Default arrows

Do you prefer heavy, medium, or light weight arrows for your hunting set up. I've been doing some reading and it seems each has its advantagesand disadvantages.

From my understanding light weight arrows are more affected by wind, don't contain contain as much KE, and they aren't as accurate. However they are a bit faster. Heavy arrows are obvisouly going to be the slowest.
There by not haveing arrow trajectory of ligher arrows, but they do contain the most KE. So they are going to have the most punch to them??

I've shot aluminum, small diameter beemans, and gold tips. I hated the beenmans with a passion, think I ended up giving them away. They were just not accurate with the set up I had. Aluminum arrows bend easilyand do not last.I've had good luck with gold tips so far. But I'm not oposed to trying something new, even if its a little heavier.
