So I’m still learning all the different ways to build an arrow and have tried a number of combos.
I finally got my poundage to the max at 60# on my bowtech revolt x. I’m a 29.5” draw and shooting 29” arrows with 125 gr heads. Shoots under 300fps
When I went to the shop to get new 340 spine arrow the guy who built my bow told me to stick to 400 spines. The arrow manufacturing sites all say 340 for my setup but I notice if I had 28” arrows or was about a pound lighter in draw weight I’d need 400 spines. So I’m thinking I’m just barely at the 340 threshold. Any ideas if that makes sense to stay with 400?
and wondering if a bows 60lb rating isn’t alway exactly 60lbs (is it off by a pound or two)? I’ve tried a bow scale but it said I was pulling 56 pounds before and after I increased the poundage so thinking it was a bad scale.
the guy who built my bow seems to know his stuff and can bullet tune my bow easy. I just found it odd he said stay with 400 at 60 lbs.
