Anyone know what it is, I’ve looked around but can’t find it anywhere.

I’m trying to figure out what arrow would work best out of a 35# longbow drawn 28.5”.

I don't know the measurement but I reworked two of my Black Hunters to give me more clearance.

In your case I'd suggest starting with 1816 arrows cut about 29" or 700 carbons.

What do you have on the sight window? The thickness of that material affects the centershot measurement.

I suggest you measure it.

Per Junxing spec 3mm cut past center. Makes sense since all of mine have been .100" to .125" past center.

I've got a similar rig. .880's w/100 grain points are working great.

Also to add, i use .0625 on the dynamic spine calculator due the the calf hair side plate thickness ~1/16"

That should have been .800's.

Where's the edit button?

So what are you guys shooting out of the recurves in the #45-#50 range?

1916's and 1820's mostly.

I am shooting 500 spine carbons, 29" long, 145 grain point at my 28" draw. Bow is BH recurve marked 50#@28", but scales 53#..

I use same arrows for the BH longbow. Come out 40 400 grains.

I get good arrow flight with this setup. Chrono'd the recurve at 200fps, longbow at 190 on a previous thread.

*400 grains
