You don't take off the bow's mass because the bow's mass is drawing the bow.

You can still use 400's at that setup. I use 470 Protours at 27" 60lb and they group nice. The 400 Triple is a 480 spine. Personally I would buy 300's, but would use 400's if that's what I had.

Compound bows will shoot arrows over a massive range of spines (like 0.2 deflection range which equates to 200 on the spine ratings) and still group well enough to shoot 1350+.

Cheers breh, and thanks everyone else who responded, helped set my mind at rest. so looks like i am pulling 58lbs then, will probably just go to 300s when due for new arrows.

all i gotta do now is shoot as good as my bow, whats the best fita/york score with a switch again? no problem
