hmmm just a thought but i think he could use wood arrows provided he used a reasonable compound. i'm sure it would work if he used a 45-55 lb draw weight and not some hyper cammed bow andproperly spined arrows.
nowadays everyone tends to think of the super bows first. i would use wood arrows with my 52.5 lb draw whitetail hunter and im sure the arrow would not splinter.
i dont think i would use them with the mathews s2 tho.

as an extra, i would rather a sizeable hole going straight through my hand from the wood arrow going through it than a hundred smaller holes snaking around from a carbon. just saying.

I am REALLY bored and just up for banging my head on a block wall and will post one last time on this mindless post.
Just go ahead and shoot your wooden arrows in your compound and enjoy. IF and WHEN something goes terribly wrong, don't say that your were neither warned nor told that it was not a good idea. Just go get it fixed and don't come back complaining that look at what happened to me when I did this and don't know how or why it happened.
Just like the 7 yr old that was told not to do something that he would get hurt. And then when they go and do it and get hurt, you tell that I told you not to do it or this would happen.

LOL at newbies bringing back ancient posts. Especially posts asking crazy questions! Been turning cedar for over 5 decades for some of my traditional bows. I'd never even DREAM of the absolutely retarded act of firing them out of any of my compounds. The energy transfer (power curve) is MUCH steeper from a compound bow. Now this statement doesn't include a "wheel bow" as they are just slightly above the energy transfer curve of a recurve. But ANY cam bow you would be risking your hand or forearm as well as taking a chance on busting a limb or cracking the riser.
