Smithhammer, I have bilateral labrum shoulder tears, so I have not got into cutting & tuning yet. Shooting is painful & surgery is the only option(which I’m holding out till i can’t take it anymore). Not getting to shoot much is also painful. So, it’s too early to give you an answer. When I finally get there, I’ll pm you with some stats.

Go to the Tuffhead website & read Troy’s article on tuning. You will learn a lot there & see the small, straight A & A style fletch he uses. Also go to the FOC forum & search thru the great wealth of information under, [Sticky] FOC, Tieing the threads together. I am working on building a foc arrow with G/T 5575 trad & 225 Tuffheads with 100 gr. threaded inserts. 🙂

Thanks for the response.

I don’t have any full length shafts to test. Gov’t funding is not an option, so I must narrow my choice to one shaft.

Would any of these be a good choice, or are there others that will be better? I just want a good dependable shaft for 47# with 300+ grain tuffies on the tip.
