RE: Bow with only 4" of drop from 0-32yds.
Might work with some Kentucky windage,no way to hold dead on.

RE: Bow with only 4" of drop from 0-32yds.
ORIGINAL: TFOX My program is down but I have run that scenario many times on it. Remember that the pin is set for 25-28 yards.The drop from there to 32 on a fast bow will be around 4" which is exactly what he says he shoots low,now all that is left is to figure how high will the arrow be at it's highest point,my experience tells me about 3".WHEN 0 IS27 YARDS. It just can't be dead on at the bow due to sight paralax,(arrow is below the pin) I get a start out of 3.95" below zero, to a rise of 1.54" above zero at 400fps, total variation of 5.5." Now he's claiming only 2" of variation. |

He might be off a little but not as much as people think. |
RE: Bow with only 4" of drop from 0-32yds.
ORIGINAL: RobinAim Low ORIGINAL: TFOX The original post is feasable except for the dead on at 0.The bow will be a couple inches low at the bow due to the sight paralax(line of sight above arrow) and then if the bow is zeroed from 25-28 yards,the trajectory would allow it to be just about what he said,especially if it isa reasonably fast bows,even a slower bow can be pretty close to it. Do you have any understanding of what sight paralax is? Here is a clue,I gave you a description of what it is on a bow. |
RE: Bow with only 4" of drop from 0-32yds.
But what he was claiming was his bow is dead on to 2" high all the way out to 32yds, meaning if shot level to the ground, it would only have 4" of drop total over that distance. His arc would only be 2" high. |

RE: Bow with only 4" of drop from 0-32yds.
There would be considerable speed loss but you would use the average speed to that distance and your scenario was only a 2" drop at 32,not 4"

RE: Bow with only 4" of drop from 0-32yds.
I only lose about 20 fps at 30 yards so you could use an average of 10 fps speed lossto calculate withto get in the ball park.
