An arrow sizing chart is a useful tool for selecting the appropriate size of arrows based on factors like draw length, draw weight, and intended use (e.g., target shooting or hunting). Below is a general guide to help you determine the right arrow size for your bow setup:

Arrow Sizing Chart

Draw Weight (lbs)	Recommended Arrow Spine (inch)	Arrow Length (inches)
20-30 lbs	500-600	28-30
30-40 lbs	400-500	28-30
40-50 lbs	350-400	28-32
50-60 lbs	300-350	28-32
60-70 lbs	250-300	30-32
70+ lbs	200-250	30-32

Note: The specific arrow spine depends on other factors such as your shooting style, arrow material (carbon or aluminum), and bow design.

An archery arrow size chart helps you select the right arrows for your bow based on the specifications like draw weight, draw length, and the arrow shaft’s material. Here’s a breakdown of what to consider when selecting arrows, along with a basic size chart for reference:

1. Arrow Length

• Draw Length: The length your bowstring is pulled back determines your arrow length.
• Standard Arrow Lengths:
  • Typically measured from the nock to the end of the arrow shaft (not including the point).
  • Add 1-2 inches to your draw length for your arrow length.
• Example: If your draw length is 28 inches, you might need arrows that are 29 to 30 inches long.

2. Arrow Spine

• Arrow spine refers to the stiffness of the arrow shaft.
• Stiff Arrows: Suitable for higher draw weights.
• Flexible Arrows: Suitable for lighter draw weights.
• To find the correct spine, you need to know your bow’s draw weight and draw length.

3. Arrow Shaft Material

• Carbon: Lightweight, strong, and durable.
• Aluminum: Less expensive but heavier and less durable.
• Wood: Traditional but less consistent in performance.

4. Arrow Weight

• Light Arrows: Quicker speed, but less stability.
• Heavy Arrows: Greater kinetic energy, better penetration, but slower speed.

5. Nock and Point Sizes

• Nock Size: Compatible with the bowstring (e.g., small or large nocks).
• Point Size: Depends on your arrow’s intended use (target or hunting). Standard points are 100 or 125 grains.

6. Fletching/Vaning

• Typically 3-4 vanes are used for stabilization.
• Length and shape depend on arrow type and intended use.

Final Tips:

• Consult Manufacturer Recommendations: Many arrow manufacturers provide charts for choosing the right spine and length for your bow setup.
• Professional Advice: A pro shop can help ensure you get arrows that match your draw weight, length, and shooting style.
