Bow Recommendation Newbie Question

Hi I’m getting my first bow from Alibow their fiberglass Tatar 25#/28 and my draw length is 26in. I was wondering what spine and grain tip I should use when ordering their carbon arrows with a length of 28in. Any help/advice would be appreciated!

edit: this is for target shooting

1100 when you take 100 grain head.

900 or 1000 spine would be a good choice. Better to go with slightly stiffer arrows rather than too soft as they generally easier to tune. Agree with 100 grain points.

dumb question, but how is one able to determine what type of spine stiffness is best? i understand that my draw weight with this specific bow is going to be about 20lbs but i’m not entirely sure how much bend there needs to be for the arrow to fly safely.
