Default Arrow Lethality Article

Hi, Guys,

I just read a fantastic article in the Feb/Mar 2008 Traditional Bowhunter. There is so much stuff in the article that I didn't know. Granted, I'm a newbie here, but some of the stuff there just amazed me. I'd reccomend that anyone interested in arrow penetration read that article. I read part 2, having missed part one. I just started getting the magazine. The article was written by a Dr. Ed Ashby. It explains a lot about arrow construction, and how it relates to the amount of arrow penetration. I always assumed that a lighter arrow moving faster would have better peenetraion. According to the article, I was wrong. I also thought a 4 blade broadhead would be better. Wrong (again).The article really enlightened me.
