Arrows are made of low density material.
Carbon is less flexible and lighter than aluminium, which means that an arrow's diameter can be thinner making it more aerodynamic.
Less mass= More speed
The less the arrow weighs the faster the energy can make the arrow accelerate.
A bow puts energy to a heavier arrow better than a light arrow.
Every time you decrease 1” in draw length, you lose up to 10fps of arrow speed.
Lighter arrows stay in the air longer.
The faster the arrow the better because it allows you to make mistakes.
it is estimated that you shoot 5 grains per pound
longer the draw length=the longer the arrow
grains of the arrows vary, and …show more content…
The quantity of drag on an arrow is a part of the shape of the arrow, the speed and the mass of the air.
If you shoot both arrows out of the same bow, the lighter arrow will be faster. But, the heavier arrow will leave the bow with more kinetic energy because the bow is more successful at moving energy to the arrow.
The three pieces of material on an arrow are called the Fletching and they help steer.
The most used feathers and vanes are 3”, 4”, and 5”
You can buy different weights of nocks to put on your arrow, and that will affect the speed and accuracy
Fletchings on the arrow allow the arrow to spin, and that allows the arrows to fly at a high rate through the air.
Arrows spin the most if you have a helical fletched arrow, and they spin a little when your fletchings are offset, don’t spin at all with a straight fletched arrow
Fletchings allow the arrow to fly through the wind, and they can easily be replaced if broken
Arrow nocks can be glow in the dark, and that is used after hitting a deer, so your arrow can be found
To figure out what draw length is ideal for you, you just take your arm span divided by 2.5, and if can also be determined by your
