arrows spine

[woodstoka]

hi guys on an arrows chart u typ the draw length and poundage and it tells u the arrow size but wat if u want the arrows to have over hang will the spine of the arrow chang because its abit longer example my drawlength is 25inchs and i shoot 45lbs and i shoot 2213's cut@ 25.5 inches long and i buy some new 2213's cut@ 27inchs will the spine change or will they shoot the same any help would be great thanks
:D

The spine will be weaker as you lengthen the shaft. To compensate use a lighter point but this will affect Front of Centre. Just need a happy balance.

so if my draw length is 25inchs and i get some arrows with about 1.5inchs of hang over will it shoot the same

Ok Can I ask Why you turned away from the 2018s ?

To me they seem pretty close to the money !?

[woodstoka]

they dont shoot strait every single shot is different if i cut them shorter to say 26 instead of 27.5 would they be any different

[Willy_R]

When You say don't shoot straight ? you mean they come off the rest flying sideways etc fishtailing ?
And not grouping ?

You are shooting Vanes Which do tend to give you allot of contact when fired through your type of rest.
Usually resulting in fishtailing down the range and give limited accuracy.
I personally would try and cut them down to the 26"
(Measure off the front of the rest 1 inch should bring you very close to the front of the riser)
And maybe refletch with Feathers.
Your shafts are just about spot on for your bow and draw at this time.

I would in all honesty concentrate on your rest and release, I see allot of younger shooters with simply a rolling finger release which cause a very bad set of events off the rest resulting in poor groups.
Do have some way of refletching your Arrows ? a shop nearby maybe or even a member closer by maybe able to help out be glad to do them for you but its along way to far north Queensland .
be Glad To send you some feathers if ya can find someone who will fletch them for you ?

hope this helps :)

iv got them on ebay i currently shoot xx75 camo hunters 2213 and every 1 says they are rong for my bow and they shoot faster and accurater then any arrow iv shot b4 so im just gonna sell mi old ones and buy 1 doz new xx75's might sound silly but they are a better quallity arrows

[Willy_R]

XX75s or Gamegetter IIs in 7075 T9 alloy will be a better arrow than your 5086 Fallstalkers for sure.
The 2213 is a very similar Spine to your 2018 so if you got them allready ! by all means go with then bit lighter too so they will be slightly quicker. but trade off in weight.

Your big diffrence here is hunting weight of 450gr for your 2018s with a 125gr head verses your 2213 at 380gr with 125gr.
These are rough weights but enough to see the diffrence.

good luck with it.
