Arrow weight

RE: Arrow weight
My fiance is shooting a 40lbs bow with a 385 grain arrow at about 200fps and Im sure that will be more than enough for deer at ranges less than 25 yards. You really need to look at what your hunting, how far, what broadhead, arrow etc.

For hunting, I won't recommend anything under 400 grains, and I'd use heavy enough points to get FOC up to at least 12%.

Go read through the 'physics is fun' thread, mobow. Not to put you off or anything, but I've typed my fingers to the bone in that thread responding to the exact things you ask. My piddies are tired.
As for the FOC formula, I just go to Jackson's and let the 'puter do the work. www.bowjackson.com
