Default do vents in broadhead blades make them louder than unvented?

I asked the question in more than a dozen groups on social media about broadhead vent noise. 98% of respondents said that vented broadheads are louder than non vented broadheads so I put that theory to the test in my latest broadhead video.


FYI, I included not 1 but 2 sound meters (decibel meters) and the results matched that of the sound recordings. It would have made the video a hell of a lot longer to show the meters and the readings for each shot and since they didnt add value or disagree with the findings I shortened the video by leaving out the meter footage.
