If I wasn't after the 2%, then I wouldn't make raw shafts long enough for that 2% to fletch up and shoot. If I did make shafts that long, then I'd make sure the quality was there for them to be just as good at 32" as they are at 28", like Easton has done with aluminum arrows forever.
Maybe I could rummage around and find an overdraw to stick on my bow to shorten my arrows to 29". That would be exactly the same kind of rig I shot 20 years ago. Ain't progress and technology grand! <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
Nah. I'll just shoot aluminum until they're driven into extinction. I probably don't have that many years of bow shootin' left in me anyway. I'd like to make it to my birthday in 2005 and make it an even 50 years of archery before I'm done though. Maybe by then I'll have learned something about it.
