weight question...?
I will be either shooting gold tipXT 55-75's or carbon express cx 200's for indoor leagues and 3-D's. I'm shooting 65# @ 26 ".
What should I be looking for, for total weight& FOC.? I'm currently using 100 gr. tips. Just wondering if I should increase or decrease point weight, or add weight over all? Any suggestions?

RE: weight question...?
Hi Steven For indoor and 3D to be IBO legal your total arrow weight must be 325 grains for a 65# bow. I would stay with a heavy point if at all possible. Arrows that fly very good indoors may fly very bad outdoors in the wind. The greater FOC is easier to tune also. If you are going to hunt with this set-up I would use a much heavier arrow. I hope this helps.
