Default RE: A deer can duck an....arrow??!!

Oh, and whackmaster, thanks.....Yes, that's the speed of sound give or take a couple, whether at sea level, or mile high, perhaps a little faster in a vacuum....regardless it is almost 4X faster than the fastest setup mentioned here so far...

6Ptsika, Hear! Hear! Good point! Glad were on the same page buddy..

NorJef....Good topic...covered many times over this will always be a hot topic...until IBO hits 1120 that is...

Now about that acceleration due to gravity, what is it? 32f/s/s. The second in the denominator is squared...That means the first foot the object is moving 32fps. The second foot it moves 64fps. The 3rd, 96fps... 0.05 sec = 19.2 inches of drop possible due to gravity alone......Yes, you made me pull out the dreaded physics book....

Keep pushin guys, ain't technology sweet!

Now Mat, look what you madee me do, edit a post...shame....but worth it....read your first line about maybe shooting a bit high and your last line about you never miss<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> You, like the author of the article have contradicted yourself..How often do you shoot that high at the range? Might be time for a tuneup<img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>
