Default Gold Tip Pro Question

I bought my new Bow Tech Tribute this weekend and I'm thinking about picking up a dozen Gold Tip Pros 55/75s, but I have recently heard that they are under spined. I'm pulling 70lbs with a 28" arrow. What are your thought on the correct spinefor the GT's?

I'd go up, I did. I've shot both. Not much difference with points but BH's are a different story. The xt's are not a bad choice. I can't tell the difference except in the pocket. Keystone has them for 55 bucks with free ship right now. Pro's are close to 90. ,003 compared to .001.

I just started using them last week. I have the same rig you do to the "t". I cut the arrows to 28" and use 100 grns. They fly awesome. I fletched them with 4 " feathers no wraps. Broadhead flight was dead on with out retuning with a slick trick!
