Default arrow weight?

is there a way to figure out the weight of an arrow without a scale? if so, how?

Default RE: arrow weight?

Yes. You can get pretty close. You gotta get the specs of your arrow, how many grains per inch. Then, mulitiply that by how long your arrow is.

Next, you need to know how much everything else weighs. Insert, nock, fletching, anything else added to the arrow other than the raw shaft. Add in your point weight, and voila. Close anyway.
