Bow model?

Sorry I forgot that. Mathews halon 32.

Sorry I forgot that. Mathews halon 32.

It shows way weak, deep in the red to the left. Cutting the arrow to 30" still shows weak.

Thanks. That was what i thought. I was having trouble getting a good tune to my broadheads. It also has a low foc i think. I probably will look into something else and give you a proposed one to run if you dont mind. No idea what i want to go with as of yet.

Black Eagle Rampage 300, 27.625"

I went ahead and paid for the software, you're showing weak there....

 

[bmart2622]

Is the app the OT2go app for $1 on the app store?

 

[Hoot]

No it’s a pc or MacBook software you download from their site, it’s software for archers by pinwheel, for Mac at least

 

[bmart2622]

So with my above set up, am I still weak with a 125gr head?

 

[Hoot]

yes, still weak, at 100 gr head you are just barely into the green on the weak side. I'd think you'd be ok with a mechanical but might have trouble getting a fixed blade to tune well...

 

[bmart2622]

Even with a 300 spine arrow huh? That surprises me.

 

[Hoot]

Yeah you’d have better luck with a 250 with that much weight up front, it would bring your total weight up to 539 grains and have you shooting around 280fps and 18% foc.

That ones weak too, you’d need to cut them down to 28” or drop a spine to 300....

Got a half dozen FMJ 300s ready to go. Thanks again

For BRTreedogs

Both of these are weak, you’d be better with the 300 and standard 16 gr insert....

Wow a 300 is?
I'd have no foc w a 100 grn head and standard insert.
Any other arrows out there to check out, I've always liked the axis. Scared I'd bend the Fmj.
The Maxima Red SD looks interesting.
