Default need arrows for 90 lbs bow

I recently recieved a 90lbs Samson Bowtech it has a 29 in draw and I will probably be using a wisker biscuit. The problem is the only arrows that I found were the easton acc but I was looking for something a little less pricey yet still be durable. Any advice would be greatly appriciated
Thank You

gold tip makes the 7595 which should have the spine you are looking for.

Easton 2419 is going to be plenty durable. Gold Tip also makes an arrow called the Big Game I believe (their website is being updated) that is spined for bows that heavy. Frankly, the GT's don't really follow their recommendations all that well. I have to use 7595's out of a 70 pound bow to get them to fly right.

GoldTip makes a big game shaft for high poundage bows, as do a few others. I always used the Easton 2419 for my macho bows, but that was before IBO came out with their maximum draw weight rules.

I had a blast shooting those gorilla bows in the 70's and 80's, up to 120 pounds. Today though, I wish I'd never touched a bow over 65 pounds. My aching shoulders remind me about those heavy bows every morning, especially on wet, nasty days like today....

Enjoy your bow, but be sure to warm up good before shooting it. Be careful to use good form while drawing it. And, most importantly, pack it up for the day BEFORE you get tired.

65# draw will make them just as dead as 90#. Dead is dead.
