RE: Does Kinetic Energy = Penetration?

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quotequote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> Well , I'll start at the top!

In my latest bowhunting video , Myles Keller is shooting alluminum arrows with 125gn magnus stingers.

The Primos crew , I cant be certain , but I bet if anyone did some research , we'd find your statement to be less than 100% correct.

Bob Foulkrod , I've also got videos of him shooting alluminums

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>What is Will's bow set up?

Will uses the Team Primos bow by PSE, a Trophy Taker rest, PSE sights and bow accessories, limb saver, ACC 3-49 or 3-60 arrows, and Rocky Titanium 125 broadheads.

My point is that several of the experts from the industry do not agree. That's it. Just that his point of view was in the minority and thought by many of the veterans to be wrong. So he could stop trying to force feed that crap to those of us that know better.

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>Ted Nugent , shoots lighter arrows to gain some speed for shooting such low poundage in todays standards <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

Oh really, with low pundage and light arrows he must be getting some poor pnentration. Oh wait, maybe the speed is what makes the difference. But I thought heavy arrows penetrated better no matter what the speed. By the arguments made here heavy arrows should penetrate better than light ones regardless of the speed so why would he need to shoot faster?

PS I have watched 2 of Teds shows in the last week and was shooting his Bowtech set at 53lbs one he had a complete pass through with a carbon and the other with a 2213 that was dipped from one end to the other. So I would say your speed theory just went out the window.
