RE: figuring arrow spine
They should just use the spine weight for the arrow markings. Instead, a 300 series from CX could be .370. A 400 is .320. A 340 from Easton is 340. Easton is probably closer than the rest with the printed spine weights equaling the arrow. It's ass backwards. The manufacturer's are the ones that need to correct the issue. If they'd simply state the spine weight selecting a different arrow would be much easier.
A good program can get you in the ball park for arrows easier and cheaper, and save you a ton of time,then buying arrows and testing every spine, changing draw wieght for ech one, etc.
A few guys have been telling me about the bulldog nockcollars.
As for the Robinhooding/hitting knocks. I was told to stop shooting 2 arrows at the same point. But sometimes that is unavoidable.

RE: figuring arrow spine
Just a a side note wouldn't it be nice if the ATA would standardize arrow markings so that the number cooinsided with the appropriate spine deflection. It would be a lot easier to compare apples to apples, don't you think?
