I recently got some new arrows from the archery shop. I usually just let them take care of things since I'm no genius when it comes to archery tackle. I've been shooting/ hunting archery for around 10 years now. Some years I don't even archery hunt, it really all depends on the tags I draw. I also hunt with rifle and muzzleloader. Haven't archery hunted for a couple years now. So here's my question...
I've got a 27" draw, shooting 400 spine arrows with a 100 gr tip. I was thinking about going with a 125 gr broad head to increase the over all weight of my arrow knowing it's on the lighter side. I looked at a chart on-line and it looked like I would possibly be under spined if I moved up in broad head weight? Or at least right on the bubble.
Got me thinking... I hear "under spined" all the time but not really "over spined". Is there such a thing? If so what are the down falls to being over spined? I was thinking I could go to a 340 spine which would work better with the 125 broad head? Although, 400 spine seems to be recommended for my draw length. Thoughts???
