435 grains = 15.26 grains per inch on my setup. Fixed heads........no problem. 6.8 grains per pound.
May be my last season hunting with a lighter setup, next year possibly back to aluminums.
We will see.

RE: how manny g.p.i. for hunting?
I use a beaman 340 arrow. my total arrow weight is 414 grains.
I used to use spitefires but I found out I got the same preformance from a shockwave, which saves some money.
I find when I paper tune my bow and get a bullet hole as they say. I can take an ultimate steel broadhead and stack it right with a field tip arrow.
Have you paper tuned you bow??

RE: how manny g.p.i. for hunting?
Yes i paper tune my bow and my accuracy is great. The only problem i have is my broadheads do not have perfect point of impact with my field points.They are close,but not close enough for my confidence to shoot a 12 ring @46 yards.I just want to eliminate having to bump my pins around a little every weekend.
