Short Draw Arrow Setup-what do you shoot?

[Lawnboi]

I went from injexions 26” carbon to nock throat. 2 steel deep six Inserts. They were 447 if I remember right traveling at 270.

I switched to axis 340s, 26” carbon to throat of nock. 50g brass with a 25g iron will collar. 100g head. Couldn’t tell you the speed on my 68lb triax but I can tell you I’m not setting any records with speed.

Greatly prefer the quiet shot, combined with the penetration on target of 450+ even if it means going slow.

For me at 26” to go by the 280fps rule we see preached, I’d be shooting a damn light arrow. Or pulling 80lb limbs.

What length do you cut your arrows?

25 and some change carbon to carbon.

Edit: would have to measure but I would bet 25.5 inches would be awfully close to what I cut these ones at.

Gold Tip Kinetic 400s cut to 26.5"
Obsession Evolution 2014 at 60 lbs, 26.5" draw
Arrow weight 410 gr.
A fast bow at 6-7 grains per pound will be quiet and shoot flat.
YMMV
