Arrow Length<br />
Why talk about the length now when the arrows are not even finished?<br />
If you shorten your arrows exactly to your draw length, the spine value<br />
and the tip weight have to be meticulously adjusted to achieve a constant<br />
hit pattern. The shorter the arrow, the higher the bending stiffness,<br />
i.e. the spine value.<br />
So it may be that you need arrows with a spine of 36# for your 40# selfbow,<br />
so that they can wind themselves cleanly around the handle when<br />
shot. Short shafts with a spine of 40# would be too stiff and would hit a<br />
target to the left of a right-handed shooter or hit hard on the side of the<br />
bow’s handle area.
