Definitive arrow study- Easton

[BBob]

your reasoning?

Beyond a certain point in real-world conditions, particularly in wind, the steering influence of the broadhead outweighs the vanes’ ability to stabilize flight with too much FOC. And what he said above ^^^

Edit: I added "with too much FOC" to the above to further clarify my thoughts.

Back in the day when I shot a ton and experimented a ton I kept records of how and what I shot day in day out and figured out what worked for me. "High" FOC wasn't it, at least for me.

So many very good bowhunters and shooters I know have said the same.....

How? A BH has less surface area than the fetching and with high FOC it has a way shorter lever with which to impart any lateral force than the fetching does.

I do agree that very high FOC arrows can be effected by crosswinds more meaning they fly more sideways

Just figured what you were eluding too, I think. You mean in a cross wind the high FOC arrow can tail out which points the BH to the opposite side which induces steering. ??

My argument was in still conditions the fletching will have far more influence than the BH
