I need advice on a new bow.

I have been using a Bear Advantage Hunter which was given to me during spring. This is the first bow I have ever owned. I have been shooting it 4 times a week since May. I killed my first deer two weeks ago with this bow. I feel pretty confident in my consistency and accuracy. I tried to find info on this bow but all I found was that it was made exclusively for walmart. Long story short, I decided to upgrade today and I bought a Bear Moment #70 used. I believe this bow is much faster (340 fps) and it will be tuned to 10 lbs heavier draw weight (70lbs). My draw length is 29 inches. My main question is about spine and point weight. From reading online it seems like I need 300 spine but how do the tip weights change things? Do I get more kinetic energy from a heavier field point? More penetration with my broadhead? Is there any advantage to hurling more mass down range or is it all about tuning tips to arrows to make them fly correctly?

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

So my budget has increased and i decided i'm going for a top-level sight for the target style recurve i'm building. It seems that Shibuya and Axcel are the top end, so for anyone who has experience with either one of them, or preferably both, could you tell me the differences, pros and cons, and which one is the best value? i'm planning on buying the most expensive, so the Axcel Achieve XP - Recurve or the Shibuya Ultima RC PRO Carbon Sight . If there's any other top end sights you think are better, let me know. I want this to be the first and last sight that i ever buy, and price doesn't really matter. Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

Are my new arrows overspined?

Are 400 spine, 27" arrows overspined for 30 pound draw weight? The guy just picked the arrows, cut them and gave them to me. my old arrows were 500 spine, 32" so when I said that they looked overspined, he just shrugged and said "the chart says they're ok". Can anyone confirm my doubts? submitted by /u/Astaziel [link] [comments] from newest submissions : Archery https://ift.tt/3pmjVLf via
