    Front of Center Balance and spine are the two biggest factors influenced by your choice of point weight. Most folks nowadays shoot 100 grain points but that may not always be the optimal point weight for their setups.

    Head to www.bowjackson.com and use his various calculating devices to experiment with FOC, spine etc.. It should help some.
