Always liked the idea! Do they have any affect on arrow flight? Do they add FOC? It may be a wise idea to make a dozen elk arrows with those installed from the get go!!!

I use the heavier ones to improve FOC on several sets of arrows. I recently had the chance to test the new POC reparrows for when you break an arrow in a set and just want to repair, without changing the weight. Great product!!

mnbearbaiter, users who have commented to me on arrow flight have all  said they can see no difference at the ranges they shoot at.

Any change in FOC is very small. The specific gravity of POC is about .41. Cherry is about .44, and walnut .55. so in a piece 11/32 in diameter and four inches or less in length, the difference, as I said is very small.

Reparrows' main reason for existing is to put a broken arrow back in service. Next up is that that the footing is some amount stronger than the original shaft.

Reparrows are great... You can't go wrong with them...

I tested some for Jim and was trying to brake them and they held up great.( Note: My test where done as a test and should be used as a guide. This means that they may or may not brake on You..)
