2314's are way too stiff. For example I just ordered some arrows for a friend and he's 28" & 55 lbs with a t/d recurve and the best starter selection for him was a 2212 or better yet a 2114 both choices were with a 125 gr b/h & I believe a 30" cut length. (As far as I can recall)
These choices were made from strictly a spine point of view w/o taking mass into the equation since I'm building the arrows so that he can shoot bowbirds with his son. However, a straight flying arrow will outperform a heavier crooked flying shaft any day of the week.
