I read a write up from the Tim guy at gold tip. One thing he said was he shoots all his arrows through paper. And rotateds his knocs so all the arrows have the same tear. What I don't know by doing that is how do you know where the stiff side is. But I'm seeing this may be a method to use if you don't have a spine tester.
Hard to tune arrows from your bow if they are not all shooting the same way first
If you listen to Tim, he also believes that the vane setup is the most important part. Last year he won the IBO world in the open pro class. 50 targets with no 8's.

Which one would you shoot?.....
BE Carnivore 250 w/ 50gr insert, 100gr head....486gr total, 13% or so FOC
FMJ 300, 100gr head....530gr total, 10% or so FOC
Trying to decide between the two. Will the higher FOC be more forgiving arrow? I would believe the FMJ would win penetration because of the weight and smaller diameter. It seems the FMJ is the more forgiving arrow, comparing to the Carnivores without the 50gr insert, which I am shooting now. FMJ's are going 272fps and the Carnivores (w/o brass insert..450gr) 292fps.
