Default RE: My new arrows are heavier.......

Wow. I think I may have opened Pandora's box with this little dillemma. FOC? Spine? I have heard these things but I'm not to certain as to what they are. Can someone direct me to where I can read up on all this?

As a side note I want to thank everyone for their input on this. It seems the more I get into archery/hunting the more questions I have to ask. Don't get me wrong I love everything about it, but sometimes it can be so darn confusing to me. I'm going to stick with the heavier weight arrows and adjust my sight as needed.

shoot the 85grn tips for your league shoot,but for hunting I would shoot the 100grn heads hat you already have,any sight adjustment should be very small.
