"Hey Guy's,
I just finished more testing of the Byron Ferguson Heavy Hunter arrows using the "Velocitip" system by Full Flight Technology.
I used a 72# Z58 longbow and the 5575 (400 size) Heavy Hunter arrow. The arrow weighed 556 grain with the 100 grain Velocitip.
All shafts were fletched with 5" Gateway Feathers, left wing helical.
First I shot a flight of 4 arrows from 20 yards. At this distance the arrows retained an amazing 92.3% energy.
Next I shot a flight of 3 arrows from 30 yards. From here the arrows still retained 90% of the energy they had at launch. Well..... except for 1 that hit with only 86% but that was caused by a REALLY BAD release on my part.
Next I plan to test the 7595 (320 size). I am a little concerned that the 100 grain Velcoitip may be a little light for this super heavy weight shaft (15.3 gpi) . I hope that by installing the 100 grain steel inserts I can make it work. I'll keep you posted,
Byron"
