RE: StarrFlight -New Fletch for Broadheads

Looks like the RazorRing at the 'other' end.

If the FOB has enough holding pressure to keep it from coming off the shaft at the acceleration mode of 0 to +200 MILES PER HOUR, it therefore de-accelerates the arrow on impact with the animal. This would cut down on the 'pass-through' velocity. While the offsetting forces may be incidental on 'fast' arrows, I question the effect on much slower arrows.

The crosswind issue has always been very questioned. I would be careful in making claims like this. The crosswind influences the entire shaft. While I see your point, I don't think it applies too much in the short distances encountered during most hunting scenarios.

You state that it can only be used with drop-away rests. We have a lot of problems with slight fletching interference with many 'fast bow' set-ups. A "slight fletching interference" problem with your product would be disastrous. Have you tried to make smaller diameter products with more length?

I could go on with my questions; but, I'd like to see some answers to these first.

Thank you.
