Backwoods,

They fly great or I'd have to switch to something else <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> With a good release I'll get a near perfect tear on paper with field points and really good flight with the zwickeys as well.

RE: Poll - What arrows are you using?
 

Thanks Tuffcity. The reason I asked was that a buddy of mine (a compound shooter) thought I was crazy when I ordered those shafts. He said that they would be spined too light for my bow. They were right on the money according to the Beman shaft selector so I figured it couldn't hurt to try them. I am a little concerned about the weight though. According to Beman the bare shaft weighs 225 grains. Add a 125 point and you're only up to 350. I know the fletching and inserts add some more, but I figure at best they would weigh around 400. I may end up having to add some weight.

I pretty much shoot 2018's 30.5&quot; with 5 1/2&quot; truflight shields--all yellow,or 2 bared gray hens and a solid white cock feather.I use the same arrows for all 3 of my bows 57# Groves longbow,66&quot;-52# Check hunter II,60&quot;-55# Great planes bamboo TD recurve,62&quot;.(All weights are at 28&quot; but I draw 29&quot;)My 2018's with a wensel woodsman and long adapter weigh in at 587 grams.I would really loke to get into wood shafts again-just need the time and equipment,something to look forward to!Any one ever shoot a Morrison Dakota?(I know I got the fever) Cam <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

Backwoods,

The 400's seem to recover so fast from the 'paradox' effect that I think that even if you are slightly underspined it's not really a big issue. I'll try to remember to weigh mine tonight and will let you know what a finished arrow comes out as.

Cam I got the fever for a Morrison Dakota about a year ago, but kept shrugging it off. I finally broke awhile back & ordered one. It should be here in a few weeks, & I'll be happy to give my complete findings after it gets here. Bowhunter4life already is shooting one & has nothing but good things to say, but then everyone I know of thats shot one was very impressed! Mine will lokk alot like this:
LOL, you guys are gonna get tired of seeing this pic! Man I'm pumped!! <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I shoot two weight bows. 55# June through December. 45# January Through May. My specs are as follows:

55# Damon-Howatt Mamba Recurve & 55# Damon- Howatt Hunter Recurve.(Need two for deer season in case one breaks!)62&quot; Hunter shoots the sweetest!

29-1/2&quot; 2215,XX75, 3-fletch 5&quot; Parabolic Helical Feathers. 160 Grain Field Points, 165 Grain Zwickey 2 Blade Broadheads with standard inserts. (540 to 545 Grains)

45# Damon-Howatt Mamba Recurve

RE: Poll - What arrows are you using?
 

Arrowsmit--really wish that you hadn't posted that pic. I just can't afford it!I seem to shoot my 66&quot; long bow (with a small recurvre handle alot better than eather of my two recurves and it's just got me thinking. Does that dakota come in 60&quot;-I wonder how unforgiving they are to shoot? I'm happy for you and I've heard nothing but real good stuff about Bob and his bows. Cam <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: Poll - What arrows are you using?
 

Cam, you're gonna hate me even more...mine will be a 60&quot;er, 60# @ 30&quot;...but Morrison told me that he was seriously considering making a 62 & maybe even a 64&quot; Dakota. He says that he has made em @60&quot; for draws up to 34&quot; tho. (I never saw anybody w/arms like THAT!!) I understand they are very fast, stable & forgiving bows. As I say, I'll be sure & post my findings soon. (I hope so much y'all get tired of it! LOL!)
