<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote<font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>For a deer, on the other hand, the broadhead cuts a hole for the shaft. The forces slowing down the arrow traveling through the deer are viscous forces - like a boat plowing through water - and cutting forces. For both of these the forces are proportional to velocity and the penetration is directly proportional to momentum.

Well that being said a narrower boat that is the same length, weighs exactly the same, with the exact same motor will run faster than a wider boat! So why wouldn't the arrow with less surface area do the same?
