I need to know how long the ARROW is, not your draw length......

My arrow length is 28.5 in. I don't know what my draw length is. I confused the arrow length with draw length. sorry about the confusion.

If your arrow is 28.5", you, without question, need to be shooting the 350's.

I shoot 74 lbs. with a 29.75" arrow length and I use the 250's.............I used to shoot the 350's until I could not get my bow to tune, went to the pro-shop and he said try switching to the 250's........shot bullets! Spine is over rated up and to a point, grains per inch is just as important and you should never go below your manufacturers recomendation,5.5 GPI is a good rule of thumb to not go below.

Believe me I am not underspined and my arrows launch perfectly with the 250's...............but you will not know for sure which is right for your setup unless you can shoot both.

I'm shooting a 70 lb bowwith a 28" inch draw. Do you think that I should get the 350 Maximas or the 250. I would like to shoot a lighter arrow, but i don't want to hurt my bow or arrows. What should I do. Please help.[]

350's. I have the exact same arrows, poundage bow, and draw length.

the 350's are a better arrow because the draw weight is 70 pounds and you need something that will keep your bow acurate

I suppose the cams on a given bow make a difference, but I was shooting the 250's on 69#'s, 28" arrow, and I was way underspined. Even the CX selection chart is showing the 350's....
