[Q2XL]

im wantin too get some aluminum arrows for my recurve and am shootin a 40 pound at 28 inch draw . what size aluminum arrows would be good for me too get :dizzy:

1916 cut to min. 29" and 29.5 may be better...it seems mine shoot well out of my 40# super kodiak but i really dont shoot it that much...:mischeif:

[mullskinner]

1916 cut 29 1/2 " might fly for you with some weight up front ..
but they wouldn't fly for me ..i had to drop down to 1816 cut at 28 1/2" 125 gr. up front fly great ..most guy's can get away with 1916's ...but not me ..:rolleyes: i got to shoot 1816's and you can't get them in the leg's..:irked: hope i have better luck with wood ..:whistle:

I shoot both Easton XX75 1916's and XX78 2016's equally well out of both a 40# and 50# Bear, each tipped with 100 gr points and broadheads.

If you can, buy a couple of each to try first. I would think you could get away with the 1916's if you leave the arrow slightly longer and adjust the point weight. For deer, the 1916 would be a better hunting weight shaft! Go to www.bowmaker.com for excellent tuning info;) ....TF

It might also help to visit www.eastonarchery.com (http://www.eastonarchery.com) and click on their spine charts. They will tell you recommended shaft sizes depending on the type of bow and the bows weight.

its so hard to just buy one shaft...everybuddy wants to sell a half doz. or a doz...they seem to not care if they work for you or not...if:mischeif: i find somebuddy willing to sell just one arrow,thats where i buy my arrows...

[mullskinner]

my local so called pro shop wouldn't just sell one ...
i bought four different sizes in half dozens ...wound up with a lot of flu flu's or fo fo ........
this is one of the only places i ever seen sell one and you got to order ..:rolleyes:

I AGREE the 1816 could be a better shaft...my 1916s are really set up for my 45# bows but they are the closest i have for my 40# super kodiak...i also looked at the chart...first time i ever seen an adoquate one and i get the same results...2016 for 50# and 2018 for 55#...:mischeif:

[mullskinner]

in the past my 55#'s shot 2016's well at 30" 125 up front.......my 50#'s would shoot them great ..my cahokia would shoot 2016 full length ...125 up front ..but thats way to much arrow up front for me ....:rant:

[coonskinner]

my 50#ers will shoot 1916 or 2016 or 2018...very well with all being equal...125 head,29" length,5" parabolic...:mischeif:
