Just wanted to give you a big thank you for all you do!! I recently purchased a Cairn bow from 3Rivers and am loving it!! Your recommendations and information are invaluable to me. Thanks for suggesting what arrows I should use. I believe I will use the specs you gave me and order Big Jim's Dark Timber arrows. May God continue to bless you and all you do! Bob

Just set some up with 75 grain inserts. And old 135 Bear stainless steel broadheads. Weigh 490 grains out of a new 59 Kodiak. Great setup on a 45 pound bow.

Hey Jeff, I’m curious what length of feather your shooting with these big Simons, looks to be a 5”, and are you shooting a left helical?

If you shoot aluminum, 2016's will fly some fairly heavy point setups out of 45ish pound pull traditional bows. Heavy arrows with high FOC great for flight and penetration, but you have to keep shots close and aim low. My Bear Super Kodiak will only chronograph 130ish with that heavy of an arrow system. Those Shark type broadheads are pretty tough and cut a heck of a hole. I still have some old school ones that accept different weight, steel, screw-in inserts. They are shorter than those longer versions you have, but they cut 1 5/8 inches and can weigh up to 240 grains with 125 gr steel insert. I favor carbon steel blades because they are so much easier to sharpen. Don't great flying arrows make you feel good? It is fulfilling when everything comes together and the arrow flies like a dart to the target.

@@vincentjenkins3677 I use 1916's for 35 to 40 lbs, and even 45 lbs (with a light point). I can shoot 200 grains on the front of a 2016 with 45 lbs. A 29 3/4 inch arrow with lighted nock weighs 560 grains. Great setup for accuracy and penetration. I know some trad archers shoot much heavier, but it slows the arrow down so much, I think 550 plus is a good overall weight.

I have learned so much about arrow building from this channel. I gave the Big Jim 600's a chance and with a 42gr tip insert they are flying straighter than anything I have shot out of my 40lb longbow. For the price you can't beat em. They Are going to be my hunting arrow this fall, just need to decide on what broadhead to use.

Glad the DT's worked for you, in the batch I had made up several sound like a 9/16 " wrench dropped on the garage floor, I cannot figure out why. And ALL of the feather fletching literally fell off the arrows! I have had to re-fletch every single one, very poor quality control.. I am going back to Traditional Only from 3Rivers..
