Well Mr. Sylvan, you think ArthurP, bigbulls, and I are internet nobodies? Over 100 years experience shooting, testing, and working on Bows.
Yes, of course you are. Just as everybody else is here including myself.
Please introduce yourself. How many years have you been testing bows? For that matter how many years have you been flinging arrows?
Does it matter? I could bore you with my qualifications but what I am or how much experience I have is NOT a technical argument. Your experience isn't either. You guys experience just goes to show that a person can be wrong for a long long time.
KE will NOT ALWAYS increase with arrow weight it is proven. You are welcome to come over and disprove it if you like[8D]
You haven't proved anything. In science one begins with observations. You've done that, you claim to have made observationsthat increasing arrow weight reduced ke. From observations you develop theory to explain those observations. You haven't done that and even what you tried to explain was jibberish. Then you submit your paper which should include your theory and your observatons for independent scientific review. You haven't done that. Then independent testers try to duplicate your results and coroborate them. In time your theory becomes accepted by the scientific community and though nothing is totally proved in science but only tentatively accepted, your theory rises as the best explanation of the phenomenon we have so far.
All the above has been done for what I have tried to explain to you i.e. kinetic energy increaes with arrow mass.
You are again an internet nobody with a couple of observations that go contrary to accepted theory and jibberish for a theory as to how it happens. Indepent professional testing labs support accepted theory and fail to duplicate your results.
I'm truly becoming bored with you guys now. If Isee anything worth commenting on I might stop back, but I doubt it will happen.
You guys have fun pretending to be scientists and engineers.
