RE: Want Gold Tips, but...
I shoot the 7595 3D Pros cut to 28.5 and fletched with 3 4" feathers. I use 125 grain Stingers. My bow is setup at 65#'s and these arrows fly beautifully. This should be very close to the weight you want and they do pack a PUNCH, especially with those Stingers.

PS Forgot to add, I have used the weedeater string too (when I had 5575's), and it works great.

Jmac I am glad to hear that your setup works. I will be cutting my to either 28.5 or 29. I am also thinking about the 125 head instead of the 100.
Contenderman I do not know anywhere around here that sells them. I was actually planning on ordering them from eders.com. They have them for $89.50 for the Hunter Pro's in camo. The camo is 9.7 gpi and the black are 8.6 gpi. The black are $79.50. Both prices are for the raw shafts.
Has anyone had problems ordering arrows from eders?

Doesn't GT have some type of internal weighting thingy? I was thining they did...
As far as too stiff, you'll hear both sides, but in my experience, if you are shooting a release and a center shot bow, too stiff is no problem whatsoever, and in fact can even be better as the arrow quits vibrating quicker.
That's what Bob Ragsdale thinks too...

I think the guys already gave you all the good answers: 7595's are fine for your setup. I now shoot 28.5" 7595's with a 63# bow and they group perfectly with my 100gr WASPs out to 50 yds.
I am shooting the same rig (with fieldpoints) for 3D, but will try some 75 gr tips to get the weight down a bit this weekend. Pushing the FOC, but hopefully she shoots ok....
Cheers,
Greg

I've had 3 setups shooting 65lbs and I never could get the 5575's to tune worth a ship. The 7595's have been perfect for paper tuning and bare shaft tuning. Same with the Beman ICS's , the 340's shoot much better. I have a 29 1/2" draw and shoot 29" arrows.
