Whats y'all's thoughts on these?
Pretty much exactly what I'm thinking of trying next.....
Id definetly get with muddy. I have those arrows, with brass inserts running 15.7 FOC custom made by muddy, and I paid 120 for a dozen if them. Per 6 is cheaper, and it's a brand new arrow set how you want.

It was actually only 5 yards, my long draw took up the first 5 ;-)

Haha. Good shooting
My secrets out
Thank You! But I'd rather have pictures like enewman ;-)
I was actually practicing shooting the gap at 30 yards

I just saw your reply Muddy, my sincerest apologies.
I'm shooting a 2012 Strother Moxie. It has the 65# limbs. I have them maxed. Scale says it's drawing 68#
My current arrows are cut to 29 1/8"
My DL is set at 31". The bow shop says that the Strothers run long on the Draw Length. My wingspan is 78" so that gives me about a 31.2" DL. Currently 80% let off.
My current arrows don't extend past the riser. My fear is cutting a finger if I go with a wife fixed blade like the Landshark or Silver Flame XXL..
My current arrows are GT XT Hunters 340 spine, I'm using standard GT nocks, 3 blazer vanes, 50 grain screw in weight, goat tuff glue, GT insert and 100 grain tip. Finished weight is 452 on the low end to 453.8 on the high.
My FOC is running 14.946%
My bow shot my heavy arrow 277.9 fps.
I have other arrows that i started shooting with.
They are Beman Bowhunters 340 Spine. Nothing added to them. They weigh in around 419 grains. I haven't individually weighed them.
Their FOC is 11.505%. The shoot 290 fps.
I have one other arrow. It's was a High FOC test arrow. It's a GT Expedition Hunter 340 spine. It's using the same components as my XT Hunters but it's using the GT Vanes which are .8 grains lighter than Blazers. The FOC on that one is 15.591%.
They all group good when I do my job correctly....
I'm thinking of switching to a 300 or 250 spine.
GT websites says my 340 is ok.
Bemans' says I'm on the bubble.
TMI?
I have a picture of my laptop screen with the spreadsheet I made for my arrows. If you want it. It's just the FOC measurements and one box automatically calculates FOC.
I have a more current version at home that can calculate ME and KE numbers...

Push if you want a high FOC arrow I really think you might also be in a 250. A 300 will handle the draw weight you shoot and tip weight but you are getting pretty long. My Strother always liked a shaft a little on the stuff side, that badger cam starts up hard to make speed. Rocky brings up a great point on how the spine is calculate, so keep that in mind as well.
