That's what I was refering too SL.
A full length arrow is going to give you more problems than you would ever want to undertake;)

I have been shooting arows that 28 1/2", draw weight at 50lbs, and I use a release. Have no idea of cams. What is on a Whitetail II bow?
How do I measure brace height and were do I measure to get cam to cam measurment?
Do you measure my draw length from the center of the brace to the strin at full draw?
Sorry for so many questions and I don't think I will be purchaseing right away but I still want to know what to look for. Eastern can help me with alot of this but I like to alot of info and then make a decision. I must admit I did not take eastern advice last time and got to heavy a spline on the aluminums so maybe I should listen this time around.

is that what you think?...  That program kills me SL...not that it isn't good but it just kills me. I still use the old tried and true charting method  To tell you the truth , I can grab any carbon arrow off a spine chart that is recommended for the weight of a bow at the correct draw length and it will work. I can rarely do that with aluminum after 15yrs.+ of doing little other than aluminum. Get a 35/55 shaft , cut it to 29" and you'll be fine out of your bow...I guarantee it |

So you are you saying that you can take an arrow such as the 3555's and make them work with any bow that fits the chart? I highly disagree BT. VERY highly. My arrows fall in the 6075 category on most charts and I'm barely spined right. In fact, I have to cut my arrows down to the bare minmum at that spine rating. Charts are a starting point that don't take into consideration tip weight, vane weight, insert wt, nock wt, etc. Although you may be correct for SL, that does not apply to everyone or every setup. Look at it this way, all 70 # bows don't shot 275fps or 345fps. That is a huge gap in what could potentially be a different spine rating. |

I agree with you Mich. and I was referring to SL's arrow needs None the less.... With the right information on the bow I can use a simple chart to pick any arrow correctly. Now once I do , the fine tune may require a variable head weight or the allowance of 1" on the shaft length itself but other than that I am fine  |
