Both valid points. Hunting in a vacuum you would not get any plane effect on the broadhead or the fletching. Fletching would be worthless in this condition. Not real world conditions though.
Second point is also spot on. Less drag but also denser mass on the knock end. Heaviest end still drops...
I purchased an EXO K2 in 2019. Absolutely love the pack. I upgraded this year to the K4. The only reason I upgraded was I needed a pack with a stiffer lumbar pad. I'm an older guy with no but and a little belly bulge. Putting a hip belt on me is like putting a belt on a funnel. It's hard to keep...
First thing to do is establish that an object with higher density of mass will drop fast than an object of lighter density. Since I don't have a bowling ball and a feather handy, I use and ink pen and a piece of paper. Dropped at the same time the pen will hit the floor sooner than the paper...
Yes, and both airplanes had their flaps set at the same angle. The heavy nose plane would start nosing downward. In order for the heavy nose plane to fly horizontal it would have to adjust its flaps accordingly. Are we agreeing on this concept or are we disagreeing?
This would be a good comparison. If a person were to lower their arrow rest, so the arrow leaves the bow point down, then the arrow would steer downward faster than if it left the bow flat. This is all with broadheads not field points. I don't think I mentioned that earlier.
Think of an airplane flying nose down but trying to fly horizontal to the ground. A plane has to turn nose up changing its wing plane to an upward position in order for it to go up.
Its not about gravity. The gravity will pull the arrow the same, regardless of FOC. As an example, if you throw a frisbee straight outward but have it tilted front down when you throw it, it will immediately catch the air and plane downward.
A lot of the arrow drop is blamed on heavy arrows, but is actually caused by too much FOC. I noticed when I was building my heavy arrows I was using heavier front components to achieve the extra weight. Now that I think about it more, I am steering the arrow downward. As gravity pulls the...
