He is full of crap.

I use the CE made for Sportsmans and can't even think about shooting a the same dot until I hit the 40 yard line and behond. I've shot many, many groups under 2" at 40 yards with them with my new Martin bow.

I shoot 70 lbs and 28" arrows and believe the CEs to be perfect hunting arrows. Love them!

BTW, CE makes a wide range of different models and weights and I use mainly those in the 9 grs per inch range or just slightly under. Those just over 10 GPI make great hunting arrows too. My old bow was a bit noisy with the 7 gpi CE (or any brand) so I went middle of the road.

I suspect he may have been talking about the spine of the arrow though. You still picked the correct arrow. The 4560s would have worked okay with feild points but more than likely given you fits with any fixed blade and most expandables.

there may be some small thread of good information buried somewhere deep in what he is trying to say -- a lighter arrow would be faster and give flatter trajectory and be more "forgiving" of distance judgment errors

but generally when most archers say "forgiving" they mean forgiving of form flaws, and a heavier arrow generally is "better" in that area
