RE: Kenetic Energy
Splint, you need to take a longe look at a photo of an shattered carbon arrow going through an arm. It's about as ugly a wound as you'll ever want to see. Carbon fibers are nasty, and you are at a very high risk of experiencing it first hand. Splint may be a more appropriate name than you realize. Those arrows are simply not designed to reliably hold up under that kind of force.
