RE: Speed or KE?
I recently added weight to my and my wife's arrows. Result?
Wife before: 303 gr. @ 235 fps
At bow: KE 37 LB, momentum .31
At 20 yards: KE 35 LB, momentum .30
Wife after: 380 gr. @ 231 fps
At bow: KE 38 LB, momentum .36
At 20 yards KE 36 LB, momentum .349
Me before: 330 gr. @ 292 fps (4'' feathers)
At bow: KE 62 LB, momentum .427
At 20 yards KE 55 LB, momentum .399
Me after 385 gr. @ 274 fps (Blazers)
At bow: KE 64 LB, momentum .467
At 20 yards: KE 61 LB, momentum .454
I've always been speed oriented, but if you look atmomentum, we both have more at 20 yards now than we had at the bow before.
