I have a good supply of 2018 shafts and would like to use them,but all my bows are 45#.Do you think with 175gr points would I get the right spine for my 45# bows? My arrows are 29.5 and I draw 29" thanks.

Really hard to say. Need to know the draw weight at your draw length, as well as the centershot measurement or lack of, of the bows, and the string material you are using.

If your bow is center cut or past center they should work, with 125-150 grn. points.

I agree with aromakr I would leave them 30"s and you are shooting 48#s or so. I would think 145 grain points would be about perfect. Shawn

I agree with Aromakr and Scooby-doo. My Montana shoots a 2018 just fine with 145 grn broadhead. A 2016 also works; allthow the 2018 has somewhat more punch. Out to about 20 yrds can't tell much difference.

BTW. The Montana @ my draw is 44# and the arrow length is 29".

If the bow was center cut a 100 grain head might get it...... might
