Recommendations:
Arrow length is measured from the throat of the nock to the end of the insert. If you are shooting
a longer broadhead than field point, you may want to choose a slightly stiffer shaft. This are only recommendations, the optimal individual spine can differ.
- For compound bows with IBO speed rating between 290-315 FPS shot with a release aid, use the selection chart as specifed.
- For compound bows with IBO speed rating between 315-350 FPS shot with a release aid, choose at least one box to the stier side (to the right) for your recommended arrow. Example: If your draw weight is 72 Ibs and your arrow length is 29", select a shaft from group number five.
- For compound bows with IBO speed rating under 290 fps shot with a release aid, choose at least one box to the weaker side (to the left) for your recommended arrow. Example : If your draw weight is 63 Ibs and your arrow length is 27", select a shaft from group number 2 or 3.
- Big diameter shafts: When you want to shoot a larger diameter shaft for target and 3-D archery, use a shaft that is
stiffer than indicated on the selection chart. When in doubt, choose a stiffer arrow shaft.
