Total weight is 534 grains. Axis Nano's with weight tubes, 7 inch reflective wraps, Blazers and 100 grain broadheads! This was my Africa set-up that I plan to stick with for whitetails here in Texas, Kansas and Louisiana.

I never have figured them out that far, but I have been shooting for ????? years a 2413 alum. arrow at 29.5" with a 125 gr. NAP Thunderhead broadhead with 5 inch feathers. I did shoot 4 inch feathers in South Africa because they were shooting better than my 5 inch. Have no idea what the weigh. Bob

I've never weighed em. I just shoot the critters. Whatever the 29" Gold tip is with 125 Thunderheads. and yes Nebraska will be fun. Remember Ronny, he insulted you first so I get second chance on the powerline field.
