Question Stafford round..which arrows ??
Hi All
I'm shooting in the Tavenham Stafford round in January but I need some advice on which arrows to use. The round is over 30m and shooting at an 80cm face.
I’ve never shot this round before so I don’t know what size the compound 10 is.
So should I stick with 2314 s and run the risk of shooting the back end out, or use my ACEs. And hopefully get more in the 10?

the compound ten will be 4cm in diameter; plenty of room in there, no matter how wide your arrows are.

Use fat arrows indoors and thin arrows outdoors. The wind affects fat arrows even at short distances.

Thanks for the reply's
My main worry was hitting back end of my arrows and getting a deflection and losing points, as an example I shot a Worcester last night 5 doz at 20 y. I managed to snap 1 shaft in half then put a large dent/bend in another then shot 2 nocks and through 1 feather. Quite an expensive night.
