Planning my first hunt in September.
I have owned a bow for less than 4 months.
I am pretty comfortable at 30 yards.
I can get 80% of my arrows in a 6 inch circle at 40 yards.
I am getting better from 50 yards but I still have some outliers.
Up to this point I have been shooting Cabelas-branded Easton arrows (out of the box) with a 100 grain field tip and Scheels-branded Gold-Tip arrows with 100gm field tip. Depending on what the nocks and fletchings add, I assume that my current arrows are around 350 grains. I assume that my marksmanship shortfalls are still primarily about my technique. I think I am currently about 64 pounds of draw weight. I am hoping to increase that but only if I can do so comfortably.
Most of the brands and arrow lingo that I read on here flies right over my head. Can I use these arrows on the hunt? If not, is there an intro-level arrow that I can use easily without have to stress about after market add-ons, FOC, etc?
Thanks.
