What do you have? Most manufacturer sites will tell you what they weigh.

I shoot the Easton Excels that are 10gpi and are 28.5 inches. I'll look it up on their website.

My arrows are at 380gr. and have taken several elk and a moose with only a sigle shot on each. Its all about placement, double lung or heart shot and it wont matter how much your arrow weighs.
