FWIW, I'm playing with going back to a lighter bow. I just haven't had time to shoot my 55# bow much, then when I do my middle finger gives me grief.
I had an arrow that tuned well in that same weight...but is was a 340 with a lot of tip weight- 557g or so set up for a long PO shot...but it had a fairly big gap at 20y- not optimal.
Now that I'm addicted to the speed, I decided to drop down about 100g and I'm testing a few combinations of arrows, trial and error tuning.
I have the 2 that tune [shoot a bare shaft perfect at 20y- looks like it floats, beautiful!] ...so for the heck of it I ran them both in the Stu Miller arrow spine chart and Dang, if they weren't within a pound. I've had it close before but haven't used it in so long I figured I would give it a go.
Essentially you plug in the specifics of the bow and arrow, and if they are within a couple pounds, it should tune. These two arrows were a pound apart from the bow poundage. Bingo dead on.
Here's one of then that tuned![Image 7-18-24 at 5.39 PM.jpeg Image 7-18-24 at 5.39 PM.jpeg](https://forumdata.rokslide.com/file/forumdata/data/attachments/711/711331-04c63898d54a2a266fcf5d6333caf560.jpg)
so the 33.5" arrow with std insert and 75g tip tunes...but I want to use a 100g, so I dialed back the arrow length to 32"- thats it, within a pound. My new arrow. 32" 400s, std insert 100g BH.
Heres where I added tip weight to 100, then just kept dialing back arrow length until they are close.

A little lighter than I wanted at 400g but with a 2 blade it shouldn't be a big deal. I have shot a couple critters with 435g in my 55# and its blows through them effortlessly. Perfect arrow flight with a 2 blade and so far the extra arrow weight hasn't mattered- but it's a small sample size.
It's one heck of a nice tool if you get the numbers right.
