Might get by with 50-55# in cedars or Sitka Spruce, though I think you'll need 55-60#. Can get Sitka spruce a little lighter than cedar. Suggest a trial package starting at 50# and go up from there, 11/32.

My guess is that 50-54# shafts will tune well with 100gr points. I had a similar set-up that would. I never got below 490grains with tapered cedar, but at your draw length and efficient bow you will get good cast from that weight. - lbg

cecil, go here:
Stu Millers dynamic spine calculator
Scroll to the bottom of the front page and click on the newer version of the calculator. That'll give you every last detail you could ever want to know about spine range for your bow. You can play with the calculator and see what effects what. I make my own wood arrows and have referenced it many times over the years. It is very accurate. Good luck.
