Shooting a 28.5 draw, 70 lb mathews. I have shot beeman ics hunter and easton axis arrows, anybody have any recommendations as to what they prefer? Weight as well?

im shooting beman ICS hunters and I like them, looking at changing to the easton injexion, they look pretty cool... but spendy
as for the weight i use 340's and they still wouldnt hold up to real high drawback weights

I use the Beenan 340 camo hunter, but they stopped making it. Remember if you're hunting you need 6 gr / lb of pull, so figure in total arrow weight when picking which arrow to buy. For me 10gpi matched with 100 gr broad head fletching etc I'm just legal.

For hunting I shoot Easton full metal jackets. I prefer a heavier arrow. Cut at 28" and tipped with a 125 grain broadhead. The overall weight ends up being around 470 grains. They penetrate well being shot at 270 fps.

Mines a Mathews Z7 at 70 lbs at 29 inch draw and it seems to shoot best with 300's for arrows, 125 grain broadhead, with 3 degree helical blazers. I shoot Beman MFX. They out-penetrate the larger diameter arrows and in theory would be less affected by wind.
