    Thanks fellas figured getting back into it over thinking it so. Emailed the guy over at a shop and talked to the guy over at hunters headquarters. Ended up going to try a few sets and see what I like best. Price between the arrows with .001 vs .003 tolerance was nothing so got a few and some field points. Gonna throw a few and see what happens.

    I did email the guy over at Adams Archery and will talk with him when I settle on something to sling at animal.

    Currently running a 1250 gr arrow. Shoot them in the ass and watch it come out the chest. Waiting for a broadside shot is whack

    Hope this helps

    This is the first time I've shot bows since the late 80's-mid 90's, these new bows and arrow set ups are like cheating.....

    PS, I have (6) new Grizzly Stix 650's you're welcome to try.
    What spine are they?

    Look up Knock Point Archery in Fountain Inn. (864) 238-6852

    Mr. Wilson is a great guy and knows his stuff. He runs the archery shop out of his home, but he has everything that you need/want whenever it comes to setting a bow. He also makes his own stings.

    Ended up just 350g rip tko .003” small diameter. 50g inserts on the front end. 100g field points.
    500g at 28” draw. Gonna go with that set up for awhile and tweak it from there before moving to anything else. HHA single pin sight. Thing shoots like a dream at the moment. Throws them things down range quickly and quietly.
