Title: Vented or not
Post by: davesonic444 on January 29, 2010, 06:19:00 PM
Anyone know of a scientific info as to noise level of vented vrs. nonvented broadheads.

IMO is that the fletching will make more noise than the broadhead,UNLESS you have them mounted ill-aligned.

If they are making noise or whistling, put them to a spin test.  Vented or non-vented, either one should fly quietly. Alignment is critical.

All my vented heads make noise. Aligned or not does't matter.

Exactly! Some make a lot more than other though, even when perfectly aligned....

Now do I let it bother me that my Snuffers hiss a little....no way!  They're deadly!!

If they make noise I just take out my hearing aids and they quiet right down...works every time.    ;)
