I buried my bloodsport all the way up to the red label in my brand new block with a much lower FOC than yall, so yall should get some good penetration. Idk what targets yall shoot, but the red label and graphic will smear to nothing if you shoot it that far into a target like I did, just an FYI. I didn't mind though, I'm not about aesthetics

How is it possible to have negative FOC %?
here's my measurements.
Valley of nock to Carbon 29 1/16" (TAL)
Valley of nock to Balance point 14 1/4" (BP)
so here's the math
(BP/TAL)-.5x100=FOC%
14.25 / 29.0625=.4903225
.4903225 - .5=-0.0096775
-0.0096775 X 100=-0.96775
I even used this calculator
You can hunt with confidence, knowing that the TUFFHEAD™ single bevel and three blade broadheads. TuffHead has unsurpassed penetration.
it gives the same answer...
I removed the field tip before determining the BP

FOC increase
Finally made a choice on arrows.
I'm getting Gold Tip XT Hunters 8.9 GPI, 340 spine at 29 1/16" long.
I'm adding 50 grains to the tip. Gives me 19.2473% FOC :-)
My est weight is 448 grains. Which puts me at 6.5882 grains/ pound.Last edited by Pushbutton2; 11-15-2014, 04:14 PM.

I looked and looked to see if you balance with or without the tip. I thought the tech said with out last weekend. I just asked again, they said with the tip.

They came in around 452 grains.
I'm thinking of getting some Bloodsport fps hunters setup the same way. They are a heavier arrow so I'll have less FOC but more weight
