Title: What weight broadhead should I have?
Post by: Oneshot1Kill 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
