Big Tom at one time suggested at one time in one of my messages 180 grain tips. That would take me to the brink of 600 grains DK.. Would need vanes than to bring my FOC back to normal.. Tree Trunks I am shooting.

I probably should use heavy broadheads to get my spine down. Im good up to 72 pounds and Im shooting 55. [] And my bow deadnuts at around 70 pounds, so I have no need to get any more arrows if I deadnut my bolts.

Putting them on was easy and boy did they make my arrows look purty. However, when it came time to refletch I cursed the day they were created.

Personally, I stay away from arrow wraps. All they are really good for are cosmetics. I've heard many people say they help to retrieve arrows, however I have not had any problems retrieving arrows of any color. I could understand though their value if you shoot into fields at ground level where the arrow will carry a ways into high grass. Anyway for me the main drawback would be the added weight at the wrong end of the arrow.

Easy. Not to wrap. Dipping looks much, much better and doesn't weigh much. I don't like the seam the wrap leaves either.
