arrow wieght?
 

do you include the weight of the broadhead when weighing? and can an arrow be to heavy? if so how heavy is to heavy like whatgrains per lbs?

RE: arrow wieght?
 

Yes you include the weight of the head be it broadhead or field tip and I don't believe there is such a thing as being too heavy if that's the right set up for your conditions and spine.

Many shoot 900 grains plus for dangerous big game etc..

I think that it depends on the animal and the distance that you want to shoot if your bow is a constant. For example, I had an older bow shooting a heavy arrow and I could see a hump at 30 yds. That was not for me. I bought a new bow and sit at 367 for deer and turkey. There are some pretty cool sites out that that will help you with your selection. One is on the gold tip site. Good luck.

You can get a digital scale for around 10 or 15 dolars to weigh the entire arrow. Mine came in at 390 grains and I plan on lightening it up to around 320 grains. That's about all that you need to penetrate a whitetail in order to slice through a couple of lungs and possibly a heart if you have the perfect shot. The only reason I am going lighter however is to gain some more speed out of my Black Ice. If you have a "speed bow" then by all means shoot a 400 grain arrow!

Happy hunting
