Default RE: Total arrow weight

The difference in trajectory isn't much. We don't care about total drop in these cases but rather where the arrow will hit from where the pin is at.


My bow shoots a 367 gr arrow 257 fps.I can hit the kill zone of a bowhunter deer target(about an 8" kill zone)at 40 yards with my sight set at 35 yards to 43.9 yards.If I were using a slide bar sight and provided I was tuned perfect and made a perfect shot.



My bow shoots a 428 gr arrow 241 fps.I can hit the same target at 40 yards from 35.9 yards to 43.3 yards provided all the above info stays the same.

A loss of less than a yard on both ends.Man that is some trajectory that is needed in a hunting situation.[8D]
