Arrow selection help

By

Moved to compound 4 months ago, I'm training 3-5 times per week, 2h+ each and willing to start my first competitions at 50m. I shoot 4 arrows during training and my average score is around 36, usually 10, 9, 9, 8 almost never hit below 8 at 50m on a 80cm target.

I'm currently shooting cheap arrows (like 5 eur each) and need to buy a new set for the competition (need at least 6 identical arrows and have only 5) and is the cheapest piece of my gear.

Some specs:

  • "slow" bow (300fps at 60# 28'')
  • 30'' DL
  • 47# training to move to 50#

From my understanding from the Easton spine chart I should have 550 spine, probably 500 if I move to 50# (currently shooting with 600 with 100 gr points and they flight really well at 47#) but I have no clue regarding arrow diameter, point weight and fletch type.

Also, at my beginner level and the huge price differences, I'm not sure how much is worth spending on arrows, I was thinking between 10 and 15 euro per arrow, does it make sense?

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

By
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...

My thoughts on the Sanlida X10 Kit

By
Full disclosure: Sanlida reached out to me about being an "influencer." Their model, at least the one offered to me, was not something I was comfortable with. That being said, I still shoot their limbs and have a high opinion of the value of their products. The Sanlida kit has been getting a lot of buzz since Jake Kaminski started reviewing it, and with good reason. It's a relatively affordable, relatively complete setup. But is it a good value? I think it's the best "kit" available. If you don't want to pick and choose the accessories you want, it's hard to beat. But I'm not convinced it's the best use of $1000 for recurve archery. Limbs: I do absolutely recommend these limbs. At $249, I think the Miracle X10 limbs are one of the best values on the market. They honestly shot nearly as well as $600 limbs. The pair I have do not have the QC issues that Jake's did, so I definitely got lucky. Many of the alternatives in this price po...

Are my new arrows overspined?

By
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
