TFOX, going back to the idea of heavy carbon arrows...

I've done this before and had iffy results with the other carbons I've tried it on, but I weighted a half dozen of these new Carbonaeros that I got recently with aquarium tubing. I didn't do any tuning, just shot with the same setup as I shot with the 2315's. Arrows were flying flatter than the 2315's with a little tail kick, and I did have to adjust my gap system, but they were blowing thru the pressed fiberboard target butts at our range. I was even picking my arrows up off the ground behind the target at 60 yards.

That's something they did not do without the added weight, and also something the 2315's couldn't do. With results like that, I really hate to think what they'll do when I get the bow tuned to them. It's going to confine me to shooting our bag targets, for sure.

No, I haven't weighed the things to see how much weight I added (anyone know how much 30" of clear aquarium tubing would weigh?).

My opinion is that you can't make a direct correlation on how an arrow will penetrate in an animal by shooting into target materials (the one misgiving I have about Mullaney's methodology), but if I can get good arrow flight and broadhead accuracy with these weighted arrows, I'll use them this season to find out how they do.
