    Default Arrow advise.

    I am have a difficult time picking an arrow for my son's GTO. I want to shoot the Victory HV's. The spine according to TAP is .3649.
    The HV spines are .350,.400.
    The Elite shooters say the bow favors a weaker spine, but the .350's are closer. What would you do. Appreciate any advise. Want to get this right, safely. I could go longer on the arrow if needed.
    Thanks................Allen
    Here's the spec's;

    08' GTO
    28 7/8" draw lnth
    63#
    6 7/8" brace height
    27" arrow
    100 grn broadhead

    I used the Goldtip 75/95XT and there not weak spined. Believe there a .300 spine. My findings those hard hitting bows like the GTO need a stronger spine.

    I shoot the PSE Radial X-weave 300's. They are right around a .360 spine. That is out of a 30/70 GT500 with 30" arrow and 100 gr tip.

    I have shot Radial X Weave Predator 300's from the very beginning on my Synergys and have had zero issues at all.

    Broadhead flight is great and I have never broke one of these. Killed my bear with one.

    The 300s are actually a .359 spine, which is about as close at it gets for your son.

    Looks like Carbon Force rebranded the Predators as the Bow Madness edition, since they do not show the Predators anymore and the Bow Madeness ones are exactly the same specs.

    I do not think you would go wrong with these at all.

    I switched to them last year when my Beman 300's seemed a bit too stiff. I'm really liking these X-weave Predators. They seem to be tough as nails and the price is great too. I also noticed they renamed the Predators to Bow Madness.
