Default RE: FASTER ARROWS

Straightarrow, that part of my respose was not targeted toward you specifically. That was just a general staement in response to a lot of posts that I see where one may say another's equipment is wrong and they don't know what they are doing. I usually just hit the reply button on the last post. It's just easier than going back to the original post.

Now to argue statements, since you said what is the purpose of this forum if you can't..... [:-]
You did say "I'll add that flat trajectory is always nice to have, but can you get your fixed blade broadhead to fly accurately in high winds on those long shots, with a light arrow? Probably not..." which sounds like it can't be done. It can and has, but like you said later, it may require more time to tune. But as I also said, a long shot in high winds should not be taken with any setup. Too many variables.
Also you said "and that most really light arrow configurations will tend to have a lower FOC, which gives them a greater tendancy to plane." which I will sort of disagree with. If most light arrow combos that you are referring to are with tips lighter than 100 grains, yes. A 100 grain tip will give good FOC and a 125 tip will almost make the FOC too high.

I don't mind this type of banter. It's just when people get heated and personal that I draw the line. Too many people on this forum get upset over someone elses opinion.
