Stingray, the standard for arrow spine measured using a 28" arrow. For each inch over 28" you can subtract 5# of spine weight. For every inch under, add 5# per inch.

George,

Try going REALLY long.

For a 26 inch draw with 29 inch arrows you're over long by about 11.5%. Go to 48 inches and 73% over length and you'll be in a whole new world I reckon.
