RE: The case for heavy arrows for penetrating bone

Which is going to penetrate better, an arrow that can push with 50 pounds for 10 milliseconds or one that can push with 35 pounds for 10 milliseconds?

RE: Maximum KE out of short draw length??

The impulse that is available for penetrating a deer - the force times time - is equal to the momentum of the arrow. Doubling the weight of the arrow will lead to about a 50% increase in momentum,...

In my mind I think that this is almost no longer arguable. I think that the momentum is the impulse that is available for penetration - the force times time.

If the momentum is 0.50 pound...

RE: The case for heavy arrows for penetrating bone

" Light" vs " heavy" is what I think is important - a " heavy" carbon might be the best of all worlds.

I think the 2 or 3 thousand pounds force, for that 0.2 milliseconds, is a reasonable...

The case for heavy arrows for penetrating bone

It is true that KE only increases a little bit when you switch to a heavier arrow. Based on some of Mulhaney' s bow reports doubling the weight of the arrow would lead to something like a 15%...

RE: IBO speed question

v2 = v1 * square root ( m1 / m2) = 290 * sqrt( 350 / 385) = 276.5

RE: 348 FPS?

RE: jumping the string

Krisken,

That's about the cleverest thing I've heard!

Arrow drop is roughly 1/2 g t squared.

So if you double the distance you have to quadruple the drop.
