Thank you If you responded to this topic....... I shoot a 200 grain pse carbon force arrow with a 28 inch draw length and a 45 to 50 pound draw weight (Not sure because I have never had it scaled). And I was wondering if I could shoot 100 grain muzzy broad heads?

Hi there always remember 5grs of arrow weight for every lb of pull. It doesn't hurt to go over that but under it is bad. If you shoot a 50lb pull bow you need no less than 250gr arrow weight which will include your broadhead. 75gr muzzy's would work for you

Yea you can shoot any tip that will screw into the shaft. I thought that you would be after the speed with such a light draw. Just remember to keep it at 5grs. per lb of pull minimum. sometimes if you arrow is to front heavy they won't group good

Ok, sorry I didn't mean to come across rude you were answering my question right. It sounds like my best bet is to go with the 75 grains..

I would try to go with a 75 grain also. You will shoot much more flat than with the 100gr. Or better yet experiment and see wich ones you like best and the ones that fly the best. Rocket makes some nasty fixed blades also look around.
