When choosing a new hunting arrow, the weight of the shaft is an important consideration. It's also important to consider the weight of your broadhead, which may be made of brass or aluminum. Broadhead weights are usually between 50 and 75 grains. But, some can be longer or heavier. Broadheads can also adjust for different weights. Use an arrow weight calculator to determine the best weight for your broadhead.
