Jeff, you are such a great source of information, and thanks so much for your effort. I followed your earlier advice and Bareshaft tested a 600 gold tip traditional cut to 28 1/16th with a 50-grain brass insert with a 175-grain field tip for a total weight of about 480 grains for a 38 to 42-pound recurve and they fly perfectly.

So much good information for someone putting up the compound and going to a recurve. With my 75 compound, I'm shooting a 560 grain TAW. Victory TKO SS, 100 grain outcert, 150 magnus, 3 fletch AAE vane, and lighted nock. But it was a lot of turning to get it to bare shaft perfect and it was a 250 spine but it was worth it.

Your video's have helped a ton! I shoot an Omega Longbow I had built for myself, and the specs are 40lbs at my 25" draw, and I ended up with an Easton Jazz 1916 Aluminum cut to 28" with a standard insert and a 190gr Simmons Timber Shark! Added a lighted nock as well, ended up right around 550gr total, and the flight is absolutely amazing. I don't know if I could get any better! I took a doe with the setup on September 15th and ended up getting some great penetration through some tough stuff. Thanks again!

What would be a good arrow setup for a 62” fleetwood celtic 40@28”? I draw 30” I have POC 35-40 shafts and also some Easton 2117 fall stalkers. Haven’t shot either one yet but I’m wondering if I should just pickup some 500’s and call it a day or stick with the 400’s and load em up front. 35-40 arrows are 32” Easton 2117’s are 31”

Brother i have the same poundage and 500 spine but 30.5 inch draw. What do you recommend for the weight upfront? Thank you so much
@jscott443110 ай бұрын
Hi Jeff. I'm fairly new to trad archery and have learned so much from your videos, many thanks. I'm currently shooting a 45lb. recurve and a 40lb. longbow. My draw length is 30 inches so I'm drawing approximately 49 and 44 pounds respectively. Not having your knowledge, I used spine charts and various spine calculators to determine my arrow choice. Most OEM and other charts recommend 340 spine for my recurve and 400 for my longbow. After bare shaft testing the charts seemed to be accurate and my arrows fly very nice. Some say I'm shooting way too stiff an arrow, but my results have been good. Do you have any thoughts or recommendations?
@instinctiveaddictionarcher899810 ай бұрын
Well everything is determined by length of the shaft and in essence your draw length and peak weight plus the front (point) weight you are using but if you asked me initially I’d have recommended at least a 400 allowing you to shoot it from the longbow at least and very possibly a 340 for the recurve so you’re definitely good there!
@peterrabbit8467 Жыл бұрын
I have a short draw length , does taking the brace height up make the bow the correct poundage , great info Geoff
@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 Жыл бұрын
Actually moving the brace height doesn’t really change the poundage any it just greatly affects how much the limbs are working in other words moving it out pre loads them and slows the bow down a little but makes it quieter and more forgiving 👍🏻

With low poundage bows a two blade is best for penetration but anything over 45# a 3 blade is great for having more cutting surface.

I am just getting started on this journey, I am trying to figure out a formula to your videos to figure out the best way to tune my setup. I have an amo 64" 35lb Recurve. I have a 74 1/2" arm measurement / by the 2.5" = 30" draw. So I will be more like 45lb draw @ 30" pull right? I got 6" feathered 31" 500spine arrows that weigh 25g naked. I bought a pack of copper weighted inserts.. and 150gr heads. Am I going in the right direction?
@jake419411 ай бұрын
Your bow should be pulling 40# at the fingers. You get approximately 2-3lbs per inch extra past 28". I think 500 spine will tune for you but wirh your long draw you won't be able to cut the arrows much so it's possible you may need to get 400 spine. Just try what you have first and good luck

Yes sir usually any draw of a true 28” at 47# will need a 400 spine, that’ll allow you to add weighted inserts as well if you want, you’ll probably have somewhere around a 30” arrow so you’ll be good for sure 👍🏻

So I’m assuming your FOC advice on smaller .204 IDs also applies to the Airstrikes? I recently watched your Ultimate Arrow vid from 11mo ago where u were talking about being able to load up the front of an Airstrike with no issues. Have you seen them go tail high in the last year that has changed your opinion on those? I was building my custom arrow designs based on that particular video, and now I’m thinking I need to change up those plans to be more in alignment with the info you provided on this video instead. I’m just trying to figure out what the BEST arrow I can build for a Hoyt Satori 45# @ 28”? I was thinking the Airstrike 400 w/ 120gr inserts and a 200gr head that will put me at 320 up front with overall arrow weight right about 588. But now I think that 320 up front is too heavy for the Airstrike 400?
@instinctiveaddictionarcher899810 ай бұрын
Absolutely love the Airstrike builds especially the 400’s with 320 up front, they do extremely well out of my bows that I’m drawing anywhere from 47-50# at a 27.5”, a satori will typically shoot stiffer arrows well with the shelf being cut past center so I think you’ll be very happy and yes there is a limit to FOC with slightly weak arrows that starts causing nock high but you shouldn’t have any problems tuning a satori for them and they will perform great.

@instinctiveaddictionarcher89982 күн бұрын
@@timbo749 well what I’ve found is that as long as you don’t exceed around 250 grains of total point weight you’re fine with a light pound bow because it seems like every arrow I exceed that begins to want to fly tail high no matter how the nock set is placed on the string so as long as you can stay there or under your flight should be really good!
