Default RE: hissing broadheads

If you don't want them I'll take em off your hands bub! Really they will make a hiss but stop and think a min. I have stood down range as they were shot by me and the sound you hear is behind the shot not in front of it. That arrows not sub sonic. I have used these since they came out and have never had a problem with a shot jump that could'nt be atributed to bow noise or pop not a arrow/broadhead/vanes noise. Take a old arrow with a bad vane that "flaps" and shoot it and listen.... noise right? now have someone shoot same arrow for you as you observe from the side at a distance... no noise till arrow passes right? well same for broadhead hissing...All in all you can't beat a cut on contact one piece head that is spin balanced like these are.
Umm...no. Speed of sound is around 1100 FPS. Arrows about 300FPS out of a fast bow.
