  • Q:

    I just purchased a dozen traditional only carbon arrows 9.1 grains per inch. They were cut to 29 inches. Each arrow is about 400 grains when I add a 125 grain field tip. I will probably use a 150 grain broadhead for whitetail hunting. My arrow hunting weight will be 425 grains. I shoot a AMO 58 " 50 # bear grizzly re-curve. I am wondering if I can improve my killing power by increasing my arrow weight. What are your recommendations to add weight to the arrow?

      A:

      Well David I would try tube weights, they sell them at 3Rivers and they're easy to install. You just slide them into the shaft of the arrow, and they don't change the spine at all. try that but I think you'll be ok. You could also try useing an incert weight system, if you want more tip weight. 3Rivers also sells these as well.

      A:

      The first thing I would recommend is a field point test kit. You could probably increase the point weight to 175 grains or more and get better arrow flight. You want to tune your arrows to fly straight, then look at the weight afterwards. An extra 50 or 100 grains won't do any good if the arrow hits the target at an angle.

      A:

      I shoot a 55# & a 60# with differing weights of BH depending on what I am hunting. You can also buy weighted tube inserts from 3Rivers that go in your arrow. I have never used them, but hear they work well.

      Dear Sir
      I use a 500 spined feathered arrows carbon arrows for a 45 lbs. recurve p s e impala recurve bow, the arrows are cut to 29 inches,
      though when they are cut down they stiffen up a little
      I would think that they should do the job?though I don't think you would be drawing the arrows all the way back to an anchor point of 31 inches, and if the arrows were cut down a little that would stiffen them up 400 would be little stiff I would think?

      I've used the 500 @ 31 1/2" with 70 lbs. On a long bow shoots wonderful. Yours been 50# @ 31 1/2" may have more drop in shot, but a 9/32" dia. Shaft might add some hang time to your arrow & some speed too.

  • Q:

    My question is I am told I am shooting too light of an arrow setup. How do we get an arrow that is heavier. My current setup is 530 grains including broadheads. I thought about going to the cliff zwickey that are 175 grains but that will not be until after hunting season. I was looking at traditional only because they have feathers. What would you suggest. I am shooting 30" 55lbs at my draw length.

      A:

      That is not a bad weight to hunt with I like to have my arrows between 500-575 grains. Depending on what bow I'm planing on hunting with. It's not to lite and not to heavy and you still get great penetration.

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      It's simply a matter of preference, if you want a heavier arrow, it's best to go with a stiffer spine/heavier broadhead combo in order to achieve proper arrow flight while increasing the total weight of the arrow providing more Kinetic Energy. Most of the Traditional Only arrows have GPI or grains per inch, since you are shooting a 30" draw, find a higher GPI and multiply it by 32 (2 inches longer than your draw for room for broadhead) and then find a heavier broadhead which will achieve the proper tuning for that arrow (i would recommend going with the field tip test kit and find the suitable weighed tip [100 - 250 grains] which allows you to achieve the straightest flight possible). Once you know which field tip your arrow flies best at, find a broadhead with the same weight.

      My arrow weight is 520 grains with 175 grain heads. I shoot 58 lbs. at 27 inches. I harvested an 8 x 8 elk this fall and broke his off side shoulder with my recurve. You are shooting 9.8 grains of arrow weight for every pound of draw weight, this is enough to take any animal in North America.

  • Q:

    I wanted to ask someone more knowledgeable than myself this question. Is it ok to shoot the traditional only carbon arrows out of a compound bow as long as the spine is right? I shoot a long bow and a compound and i would like to use the same arrow with both.

      A:

      Yes, you can shoot the Traditional Only's out of a compound bow. You will need to make sure that they are the correct spine and you may want to use vanes instead of feathers.

      A:

      I'm not an expert but it seems to me with a recurve the brace height will allow you to use long fletches if you need to. I have realized that the tuning of the bow has way more to do with how the arrow acts than the fletches. Obviously you will need some bare shafts to do the tuning. Flu Flu fletches have a place too. I found real good info on the 3Rivers website about tuning.

      A:

      More feather will give you a more stable and forgiving arrow. Less feather will give you better speed. It is a personal preference between the two.

      A:

      Fletching refers to the feathers at the end of an arrow. Once you know the draw weight of your bow then you can purchase arrows. I would recommend getting 3rivers traditional only carbon arrows.

      A:

      The fletch refers to the feathers on an arrow. Your bow will not require that you use a certain style or length of feather. It will be more personal preference. Give us a call at 1-866-587-9501 and we will walk through the various steps to help you find an arrow that will fit your needs.

      Dear Sir/Madam
      I use a 40 lb. recurve bow shooting off a bear hair rest, my son uses a 35 l b bow, a friend of mine uses a 28 l b bow all with 5 inch feathers, the important part is the spin age to suit the bow, and the archer having the skill to hit, in the correct zone for a clean kill, heart liver lungs, the helical twist on the feathers can slow the arrow down a little, but help with broad heads?

      The outside diameter of the arrow is 5/16". Use a 5/16" field point in 125 or 145 grain if you are using a traditional bow or a 100 or 125 grain if using a compound bow.
