WHAT EV!!!! the proof is in the freezer and hangin' on the wall!!! NUFF SAID !!!go shoot your telephone poles,i'm THRILLEDfor you !!!
all you guys please explain this to me,if slower heavier arrows penetrate better than lighter faster arrows,why are the target makers building denser thicker targets which they claim are "rated for 400fps bows ??.seems like if the old style targets stopped your "target rocking" 250fps arrows, surely they'll stop these puny lightweight arrows,right ???? HHHMMMMMMMM.......
If you're really interested in an answer to that question why ask here? Go to the manufacturers who post claims to your comments. IMO, it is done because that is the marketing that is found to be needed to sell their stuff. I don't think it is based on the shear intelligence of the consumer.
Personally, the Black Hole at my club did not stop my recurve and I would never put moneydown on one.[:@]My setup is a 670 grain arrow shot at 175 FPS. Tons of momentum, but little KE (compared to compounds).
