<BLOCKQUOTE id=quotequote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> 1) Did you test at different ranges? How close were you to the paper?<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

Yes we tested them at 5', 10',15' and 30'. It was getting dark so I haven't tested them at range yet. I will probably try that tomorrow with the Hooter Shooter if I am not real busy.

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>2) A bullet hole does not guarantee great groups, only straight arrow flight (asuming you get bulletholes all the way to the target). <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

I agree 100%

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>I prefer a slightly "off" tear to prevent knuckleballing, and give the arrow some "direction".<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

By that do you mean a slightly stiff tear?

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> 4) I believe you have the matrix and ACC mixed up.<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

you are correct

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>It would be more interesting to see how these arrow shafts grouped for you at various distances... say between 20 and 40 yards. I believe that you would find the stiffest shafts likely to group failry decent, and if you were to use some the heavier 340 spine class shafts the results would be even better. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

I will reshoot all shafts I tested including the ones that didn't fair so good on paper and report the results.
