I bought my second bow about a month ago, a V3 31, and i love it. My first bow was a $300 Hoyt Klash. I didn’t do any real research on arrows. I just got the cheapest hunting arrow that was shown to me and they were ok. I now realize there is more to selecting arrows but am looking for some guidance. Bow is 70lb draw that I have tuned down to about 65lb ( will push back up to 70 soon). Draw length is 28”.
1.) I am thinking of going to a heavier arrow with 15% FOC. Was thinking around 500 grains with a spine of 300. Does this sound appropriate? Also to get to there I see I will need weights that are inserted into the shaft. Are these inserts put in both the front and back of the shaft? Are they glued in?
2.) Will these arrows be appropriate for all game or do folks have different arrow set ups for whitetail vs elk? I mostly hunt whitetail but am planning an Elk trip.
3. I am considering Easton 5mm FMJ arrows. Any recs on arrows is appreciated
