| Stiffening arrows Hi all.
I've read many times that stiff arrows can be compensated for by using a slightly heavier point or of course by increasing poundage.
I just wondered if it works the other way? I'm using 30.5" 3L-18 A/C/C's with 100 grain points and spinwings, I'm drawing 39.5# on my fingers and the Easton charts say that the 3L-18's are not stiff enough by one group. Easton recommend T7/T8 and my arrows are in group T6.
I only fitted the spinwings last week, I was using plastifletch fletches before, and have noticed that my arrows seem to take longer to stabilise in flight, would you normally expect that to happen?
Would changing to 80g points help much?
Thanks
Paul.
[edit]
I should probably add that the bow seems to tune okay, centre shot is set up properly (arrow tip aligned left of string and in line with sight pin) and button pressure is set so the arrows hit fairly centrally at all distances. Bare shafts at 50y land slightly to the right of the group (by around 12"). |
