The (mis)adventures and thoughts of an aspiring master archer, lifter, and fantasy author who happens to be irresistibly drawn towards wolves, raptors, and parrots. They may say there's no such thing as Paradise or Perfection, yet I'm still searching for them. Why do I keep searching? A voice speaks to me and says: "Search for Paradise and aspire for Perfection"...

Arrows A-Plenty
I've now got me a set of both relatively thin arrows that my compound will be happy with until about 47.5 lbs and a set of thicker, heavy arrows that will let me crank up the draw weight to 50 lbs (and a bit more). I'm actually impressed that my bow, even with my painfully short draw length (25") and light draw (45 lbs), likes the CXL 150s when a good friend of mine with a "real" draw length (28") and stronger draw (close to 60 lbs) on a high-performance bow uses them at full (28.5") length! Cutting off 5 inches really stiffens up the shaft, but I guess the 75 grain point does soften it a bit.
