Default RE: More arrow speed drivel... Trajectory chart

Have you EVER actually compared a fast arrowOUT OF YOUR BOWverses a slow arrow?


That chart is useless in real world hunting situations.


Most of us use pins so all we are concerned with is how much difference there will be between a slow bow/arrow if we misjudge by 5 yards or so at a given distance,quess what,the difference is so small that most aren't good enough shots to see the difference at 40 yards.Plus,if you misjudge by 5 yards at 40 yards,chances are you didn't get the animal anyways.


EXTREME differences in speed will yield a noticable difference but not real world differences.


You MAY see a difference when using 1 pin but if one knows how to setup a 1 pin sight,they will see little differenc in most cases at hunting distances,especially for 1 pin distances.


This argument is OLD and has been discussed many times and I have actually seen a few come back after actually testing the mis difference in real world hunting distances and say the difference was very small.
