The first time I had a dozen custom fletched XX75 Autumn Orange shafts at the range I strutted around like a Jake after getting his first piece of tail.  PSE Pro-Fletch 2 Trans/Orange 1 yellow with the lime green Henderson nock.  Man!  I was cool that day.  The squaw says I've been a dork ever since.  But, at least I had that one day.  Will never forget it!
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

were they the out of date and heavy 2216, or did you go new and hip with the 2312?? :chuckle:

9 - 2219's in my quiver Baby!!!  185fps at 30" and 80# draw.  Didn't step up to those screaming fast 2213's until the Chuck Adams Super Slams hit the market.  I broke that 205fps mark and things started rattling off my bow it was so fast.  Then I got one of the first PSE Mach 5 bows to shoot them out of and broke 220fps.  Guys were coming from three counties away to shoot it!  Oooh Baby was that thing fast and sweet!

Thanks for the input fellas.

No need to change IMO unless they are too light to legally shoot in Washington.
