        What is the recommended broad head weight for bamboo arrows? They are 33″ long and 10 GPI. 200 grain broad doesn’t work well, 165 grain is ok. Should I keep going lower? Traditional is much harder than Compound. CryLaughing

              You cant cut them off?

              Tonkin cane and 225 grain Tuffheads, are flying sweet for me.

              Draw length (arrow length) bow weight, centershot amount and the mentioned head weight all come into play and of course the spine of the shafts. As in any shaft material……all are not equal.

              I use the same old, same old cedar arrow taper tool on my tonkin canes cut to length.

              God bless
