Default Arrow Help (Goldtip 5575 or 7595)?

Greetings. Just picked-up a Hoty Vulcan (28"DL, 65#) and noticed on the Goldtip website thatmy arrow size falls close to both5575and 7595.FYI, I have been shooting the 5575s w/ my last bow (Hoyt Vortec, 28"draw, 62lbs) and 100gr Slicktricks/blazers. I would prefer to use the arrows/heads I currently have, but would be willing to up-size if it would enhance the performance of the bow and, most importantly, the hunter! Any pros/cons would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I use the 5575 on my Black Ice which is 29" at 65#. So 5575 should be good for you.

I find 5575's to be borderline weak at that drawlength and draw weight - even with a light tip. The real problem is an inconsistant spine from arrow to arrow. This cause some to be weak, some right on, and some to be stiff. This combination causes the most inconsistant groups in my opinion. It is better to have them all fly the same, even though slightly stiff.

I'm shooting the same draw weight and 1/2 longer drawlength and my 7595s tune better. The lightest tip I use is 145 grain and I shoot a longer than needed shaft. This is so the stiff arrow acts a bit weaker. If you decide to stay with the 5575s, you be wise to spine tune them, in addition to culling out the really weak ones.
