Default what is the weight of your hunting arrow?

hey guys , im trying to decide what weight to go with on my hunting setup , im in the market for the new z7 extreme from mathews but i want to see how much speed i can get out of the bow without to much sacrifice, i was wondering what are some of you setups (draw length , poundage, bow , arrow weight, ect,) and what speed your getting off your hunting setups , thanks in advance
