RE: What weight point should I use?
The problem I've found with gold tips is the great variance in spine within a dozen arrows. With the set up you've described, I'd be very hesitant to shoot your bow over 60 lbs., unless you go with the lighter tips. On the other hand, lighter tips are much more prone to plane in the wind or deflect when hitting small twigs or grass. You can probably get away with the 100 gr heads if you spine test your arrows and only use the stiffer ones. I've found the worst set ups to be ones where some of the arrows are weak and some are strong.

i would not consider the 75 at all. however the 85 gr tip would suit you well. consider the 85 gr slick trick i think that would suit you much better then either the 75 or 100.
this year i am shooting 85 gr slick tricks (when i get them), 28 in gt 5575 camo xt hunters with the 4 vane fletch blazers vanes. my listed foc is in the 10 to 10.5 percent range. arrows should arrive today. cant wait. bow is set at 70 lbs 30 in draw
