What size A/C/C for 70lb Bowtech Allegiance
Just wanting some arrow suggestions for my 29" draw 70lb Allegiance when it gets here. I am thinking of using A/C/C I am wondering what size. Or if you have other recemdations for an arrow choice. I have plenty of time to mulll this over befor the bow gets here. Thanks in advance!

RE: What size A/C/C for 70lb Bowtech Allegiance
You could go either way in my opinion. Since the E cam has better nock travel and is supposed to be more forgiving in the spine department you could go with the .340 spine 3/60 or you could go with the .300 spine 3/71. It's normally better to be a little overspined than a little underspined but the 3/60 should be fine. I believe you will be getting toward the upper end of the spine range with the 3/60 but will still fall well within the spine range. It depends on the size head that you are shooting and what you are looking for out of your setup. I am shooting the 3/71 out of my 04 SC Patriot at 30 inches with a 100 grain head but I wanted to get my arrow weight up without switching to a 125 gr. head which would have put me a little underspined with the 3/60 IMO. My arrows are cut to 29.5 inches and they weigh out about 444 gr. Since the E cams also seem to be more efficient with the heavier arrows I would probably go with the 3/71 and it will leave you with a good mix of speed and KE. This is JMO maybe some of the more knowledgeable folks will jump in here.

Could 'not' have said it any better than silentassassin. The reasons behind his choice is exactly what I would have done had I been drawing 70#, with a 29" shaft. A heavier set up will also 'help' to reduce any hand shock and vibrations.
Ain't going to go wrong and the mix of the speed & kinetic (with a sharp broadhead of course) will pass thru almost anything once placed in the right spot.
If you're thinking about the Africian animals--well I'm not going to bet my last $ on a pass thru, but a good shot placement will get the the kill and that's really the proof in the pudding--isn't it!!!

bigcountry25.. I think the 3-60s would be a good hunting arrow for what your shooting, if your gonna shoot lots of 3-d and need lots of speed, then maybe the 3-49s but they will be a little on the light side. By the way do you know any guys by then name of Buie down there, Im good friends with a couple guys from there, one now lives up near me. Congrats on your Allegiance,, I hope to get mine today or tomorrow.

Sure do I seen Heath and one of his freinds from salem yeasterday he was trying to find some shell for snow geese hunting. They already had killed quite a few that morning. I have known him and his brother since problaly sixth grade great guys. He said he needed to have his butt up there working but needed a brake.
