What weight broadhead should I have?
« on: September 11, 2011, 09:46:10 AM »
I shoot a Recurve bow w/ a 63lb draw and have been shooting 125 grain tips with wood arrows but I'm switching to carbon arrows now and I don't know what grain broadhead I should use. People were telling me to go with a higher grain weight like 150 grain but others are saying since I'm using carbon I should switch to a lower weight like 100 grain. I hunt small game, deer, and bear. So the most deadly thing is what i'm looking for. Also, I don't know much about arrows other than how to shoot them so any advice for how many blade broadheads I should have, or what size shaft I should be shooting, or any of that would be great. I've always gone with what i've been given. And that ain't working. haha
Make every shot count cause ya might not get another.

I shoot a 60 lb recurve and long bow with wood, aluminum  and carbon arrows. 125-160 grns have shot well for me.
