Good deal you got there. If the 340s would drop that low, I'd order two dozen.

It sure looks like there is favoritism for us "weak spine " shooters :)

You realize that spine is a measure of stiffness, not of weight, correct?

Not all of us are shooting a 360 FPS bow with a 31 draw length and 70 lb lbs.

My bow has a IBO of 330 it's draw length is 27 inches, I shoot a 25 1/2 inch arrow with a 100 grain head. I feed all of that information to the Gold .tip Calculator and it tells me I am right on the Borderline of a 500 Spine so I select the stiffer 400 spline.

To go to a 340 spline I would be technically over splined. I would really have to step up to a longer draw length or get some 70 lb limbs to reach the 340 spline on the chart. Now I do realize that having a somewhat aggressive cam on bow (Carbon Knight) and or shooting a longer broad head than a field point May allow for the stiffer shaft..but technically I am already shooting a shaft stiffer than I should be according to Goldtip
