Looking for some advice from some experienced archers. Recentry

Also I'd like to know what arrows specifically some experienced users would suggest given my setup. I appreciate any constructive input, just trying to learn more.

Pic related, that's it. Note I only fired a few of those 30/50 arrows before realizing they were not ideal for the bow. No, they did not cause any Bow damage doing so.

you should have the same arrow weight and spine on both platforms to train for hunting;
also at least one broadhead for training and tuning purposes

a too low grain per pound value can damage your bow because the lighter the arrow, the more energy will go into the limbs

do you know the minimum GPP for your bow?

I do not as I purchased it used and the digital manual available online does not offer this information.

there is a general rule by bow manufacturers to not shoot under 5 grain per pound

i'd go towards the 8 gpp but i don't know anything about compound

in general:
light arrow: faster, noisier, flatter flight
heavy arrow: slower, quieter, less flat flight, more momentum

better lurk on some bow hunting forums

You want an arrow cut to 29", probably either a 300 or 340 spine depending on point weight.

Light arrows for target sounds off. Target means shooting known distance, meaning speed takes a back seat to stability and the ability to cut through wind. 3D and field, where you're shooting unmarked distance are where speed becomes a priority.

Either way, you don't really want or need separate hunting and target arrows for a single bow given you'll need to tune for whatever arrows you're shooting. Ballpark 450 grains is a good weight though, gets you to around 275fps with plenty of momentum.

A Gold Tip Hunter 300 cut to 29" with blazer vanes, a stock accu-lite insert + a 20 grain screw in weight and a 125 grain point pretty much does you I reckon. Should be 455-460 grains with glue all up.

The extra point weight lends itself to more stable flight and better penetration. Also, you'll have no problems finding 125 grain broadheads.

if you can find a local archery shop you would be in good hands. Most of the people at bass pro don't know shit about archery equipment.

I'll add to the other anons good info listed by mentioning that when bunting, choose the correct arrow head.
I'm assuming that op was thinking of large mammals, but its better to shoot turkey and small mammals with specialized heads.
Even with large game, there are heads designed for penetration and others designed to bleed out the target.

And you can always get a hopper or reel and do some fishing.
I know you don't have gator up there, but down here you can't use a firearm (except to dispatch it after its caught) so your choices are snares or bows.

I gotta kickass deal through Dick's Sporting Goods for some Victory arrows, I shoot at 70 lbs as well and got 18 300 spined arrows with Blazer Vanes for around 70$ or so.
