Another good vid, Jimmy!!

Pappy - always available to make you some arrows. :-)  I'll get by soon as I can.

I shoot my arrows full length so a good general rule of thumb is 10-12# over the weight.  I am setting up some arrows for my 49# bow right now and 63# spine are flying best.  If you cut them to 28" then you'll have to adjust accordingly.
