Yes but your momentum would increase about 10%. This is much better than the loss in KE.
Haha...ok I am going to bed on that note before I get a headache trying to figure this out tonight!! I will check back tommorow and hopefully I can have some more explanations of what kind of formula/figuring you would have to do to get the most/best performance out of your bow/arrow combo!!!???!!!

I usually dont care about all of this stuff normally but am kinda thinking this is something that can EASILY be overlooked when equipping yourself beforeshooting!!
I guess what I am saying is, from what I am figuring I have the MOST kinetic energy from my setup right now with my arrow at 391grns!! I cant gain anymore KEfrom going up or down in arrow weight? I tried it a couple different ways...!!

But I can gain Momentum???? Ok the headaches coming on, im not about to try and figure this out..haha!! Please explain?[&:]
