    Wood Arrows-What do you think about these?

    I am new to the Traditional bowhunting game so I am wondering if someone could give me some guidance to figuring out what type of quality these arrows are:

    What poundage is your bow at your draw length and what spine are the arrows? You won't really know if they are right until you shoot them. Good luck.

    Probably 125gr. Heat up the broadheads, unglue, weigh them and glue'em back on to the shafts.

    Re: Wood Arrows-What do you think about these?

    Hey Pupper , I suggest you post what type and model of bow you have as there can be a up to a 20 lb swing in spine . This swing is due to factors such as bow length , type of limb (ie. wood or carbon) and most important the amount of riser shelf cutout (centershot) .
    More in wood and less with carbon arrows .
    Rough rule of thumb for spine is up to 10lb lighter for longbows (ENGLISH) and up to 10lb heavier for Recurves. Obviously with the newer hybred longbows the spine range would toughen up .
    I like those arrows and your bow will tell you if they are the right spine and weight .
    I agree with Onesock they look like 125gr .
    Cheers
