Default newbie in need of advice

Hello everyone I am in need of some help. I am new to bow hunting and have my first bow. Its a PSE stinger. My question is how do I determine my arrow size? Not so much the correct length but weight and diameter? My minimum draw weight will be 60 lbs. and max would be 70 ifI takeit that high. Most likely will be about 65 lbs.

So how does a person figure out what arrow to use based on arrow lenght and draw weight? Or is the guidlines completly differant than what I am thinking? Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.

any of the bow companys have guides or charts to help you in this selection, go to their site and give it a check, should be able to find exactly what you are looking for, since you know the arrow length and your draw weight.

brier...a little more information is needed to help you more completely. Draw length, arrow length, poundage you'll be shooting, broadhed weight, with this info most of us can help you narrow it down quite a bit....

Thats what I would do. Or cary your bow to a shop and have them hook you up with what you need.
