Big Game rules and arrow weight
 
In Idaho we have to have a minimum 400 grains for arrow weight for hunting. We also need to have no more than 65% let off. What are the other state's minimums if any?

Colorado is 35 pounds draw weight, minimum two steel blades, each blade must be in the same plane throughout its entire length, 7/8" minimum width.

35# minimum draw and 7/8" minimum cutting diameter.....mechs are legal as long as their open diameter is 7/8" or larger. All boradheads must have a minimum of two cutting surfaces in the same plane. We went through a deal here last year where Crimson Talons were originally illegal because of the curve in the blades....those heads have since been made legal....I think it was made legal just a couple of days before archery season if memory serves. Those are PA's regs.
