[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 328755, member: 340"] You can calculate FOC using this: [URL="https://www.bowhunting.com/arrow-foc-calculator/"]FOC Calculator & How to Calculate Arrow Front of Center (bowhunting.com)[/URL] 480 is not bad, but I would prefer to be over 500gr and 15% FOC. The [URL="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCM4fbcHXkfS2KceiIbWlPIQ"]Ranch Fairy[/URL] would say 550gr is the minimum for an "adult arrow", but I think he's mostly shooting pretty short range. One thing to keep in mind is that as you increase arrow weight, you need a stiffer spine, so it's not always as simple as just adding front weight to an existing arrow. Perfect arrow flight is nearly as important as arrow weight and FOC for penetration. [/QUOTE]
