I never even caught on till you guys pointed it out. You're all terrible! :oops: I like the heavier front end of your 110's with the added weight of the heavy nocks. I think you'll find it's more accurate, especially with broadheads, the further you shoot.
You're only paranoid if everyone isn't out to get you.

The BE Executioner is 9 grains per inch so you'd would drop that much off your total weight. Plus shorter = stiffer, so it would affect the spine a little. Build a couple and see how they perform.

Lol, it's amazing isn't it? When I got mine cut down and tried them out at 20 yards with a Grim Reaper practice head on my Rinehart 18-1 they were sinking about half way in. The arrows are roughly 405Gr total weight shooting roughly 330 FPS which is about 97KE.

Heavy hitting little buggers lol
