WKR
I can't really see the extra 50gr up front making any significant difference besides a longer sight tape.
In recent months, I feel like many have been chasing this "magical" FOC number or want to slap that label on themselves and to no avail really. I'm all for tinkering and trying things out; I get it. But FOC is just really out of control atm in my honest opinion.
I wouldn't disagree. While Ranch Fairy does have valid data to support 800g arrows..... He's on the end of the spectrum that says "if i shoot a cape buffalo with a howitzer, it will die"
My personal experience would say that 500g-600g arrows (for someone my size) is sufficient for everything until I'm going after MASSIVE animals like cape buffalo, hippo, etc..
I have literally 2 arrows left from the dozen I bought 9 years ago and I have 1 useable fixed blade broadhead that isn't broken.. So I'm buying different GPI and brand arrows so I can tinker with a more efficient arrow. I'd like to jump into using the IW wide 150's for white tail and IW single bevel 150's for elk and bear. So now is the time to tinker
