Hi Rudy,
I am not exctly new here but this is my first post. I suggest doing some reading in the Ashby Libray as well as Dr. Ashby’s post on “internal footing” in this forum. It appears you have the rght broadhead and your arrows are plenty heavy. You could probably get by with less weight as long as you stay above the heavy bone threshold of 650gr. I agree with David that increasing your FOC would probably help the most. Start with a shaft that has the lowest “GPI” you can find in the correct spine for your bow. You may have to go with a stiffer spine than you are used to beacause you will be putting most of the weight up front. I shoot 53# and use Easton Flatlines at 7.4 gpi. Using your current broadheads and heavy brass inserts should fill the bill.
