G'Day Huffy,
Sorry mate, not that simple to answer without more info :(
So... you'll need to give more info, such as, your draw length, bow poundage, weight of broadhead you want to use, etc.

The numbers refer to shaft size-spine- weight

Also wouldn't hurt to give your archery & hunting experience, no offence, but sounds like it might be limited. People here are very happy to help you, but are also very much concerned with the fact that hunting is done humanely & not carried out in a haphazard fashion, so if I have read your experience or lack of correctly, some of the extra advice you receive may not be as you wish it to be. If I have misread you please accept my apology :)

no offence taken mate, my archery experience is very minimal, my hunting experience is quite good. as i explanied in another thread im a spearfisherman and love the stalk and extra skill taken in these sorts of sports. and i understand totally about killing an animal as humanly as possible. as thats what i believe in that too.

IMO, Yes, (others may / will disagree) they are tougher than aluminium or wood, but beware there are many diff carbons as well, this includes $$$

Doesn't change the fact that for us to help you still need to give that other info we mentioned earlier, unless of course tour dealer has put you straight :)

[huffy]

ok. my bow is 60 pound. my broadheads are 125gr. and my draw length and string length i think said 28 & 29. not 100% shore as writing is hard to read. do that sound right??

[huffy]

draw length is 29 30
