Arrow Pentration Factors

[Konrad]

Perhaps I was not clear enough in my first post (my wife accuses me of this quite frequently) but I was writing from a position of accepting that everything else (tuning, etc.) was correct in the comparisons.

Perhaps I take too much for granted but I was looking at things assuming an apples-to-apples comparison (everything else being equal/perfect).
I apologize if that was not originally made clear.

In addition I will also add that I disagree regarding the statement that "everything else is debatable".
The information contained in the original post was not hypothetical but empirical data.
Like someone once said, "It is what it is..."

The substantiated information posted is a summary of Dr. Ashby's study's on Arrow lethality.

Dr. Ashby has his own forum w/i the Trag Gang Site.

I always assume that most prefer an accurate arrow and realize the importance of a tuned one also.I think you explained yourself just fine.

By subscribing to the Traditional Bowhunting Magazine's web-site (free & no spam) you can read all of Dr. Ashby's fine and detailed work. They also sponsor a forum dedicated to traditional bowhunting open for comments.

They also have a fine print magazine that you have probably seen on store shelves.
