Default Pick me a new arrow

I am looking into getting some new arrows and don't know what to choose. Speed wasn't real important for me until recently. I found out that I have a depth perception problem. Got my eyes checked and the doctor showed me some pictures of a group of dots. I was asked to point to the dot that appeared closest and I could only get threw about half the test before it became impossible. After thinking about it for a few days, I came to the realization that I have been judging distance by knowing the size of objects and then estimating the distance. This becomes a problem when I am in the woods or any other place and am not possitive of the size of objects like trees. I have to walk up close to the object to tell the size of it befor I can judge any further back distance. Sometime you just don't have the time or oportunity to walk close to things to see their true size.

Because of this problem,I think speed would help memore. I would like the arrow to drop as little as possible.

Canyou guyswith one of those arrow selection programs help me choose an arrow. I would like to use the lightest arrow possible with the correct spine.

DL is 30"
DW is 65# but will increase to 70# as soon as my schoelder heals more.
I will be using blazers.
string loop
100 grain broadhead

Hope that is all you need. If not, I will provide.

Carbon Express Maxima 3D select 350. A 29" arrow will weigh in around 390 grains, with a 100 gr. tip......Close to that anyway. I've shot ACC's ( my second choice for your set up, by the way, in a 3-71 ) and the 3D Selects are better, IMO anyway.

I have no experience what so ever with Gold Tip arrows, but Pro Hunters would be an excellent option as well. I hear lots of positive things about those too.
