Pretty neat,

OL Adcock wrote this on the subject just today:

"Single bevel broadheads do in fact turn through a critter. You can see this by shooting into a foam block and looking at the angle of entry and exit. As for the arrow spinning in flight due to fletching, the energy needed to cause that spin is very low and it's moment of inertia once spinning again is very low. It takes little to nothing to get it spinning and little to nothing to stop it. Flywheels are large diameter and heavy for a reason!..O.L. "
