The bowyer that suggested 2016 did so about 21 years ago. Did I trust him? Sure, I bought the arrows. Did I understand why? Nope, but I'm working on it.

Ya I'm missing alot. But I'm working on it. Asking questions and trying to learn does not invite you to be rude and condescending.


There are just too many variables to say why those shafts work for you, but if they work, don't worry about it. There's nothing wrong with tinkering so I'd get some other shaft sizes, build them up and see if you find a combo you like better. Tuning a trad bow requires a lot of patience and a bit of black magic.
