thanks for the answer. I am not trying to belittle you in any way....but you are presenting questions that are not relevant to one individual with one bow. it does not matter if XX or YY does better from different setups. What matters in archery is what works with what you have. I did mention this and you said I do not get it. I get it and so do you as you later mentioned just this.
So I don't understand the point of all this. It does not matter what a light arrow will do. I elk hunt and will absolutely take an 80 yard shot with my 615gr set up if he has his face in the water.....I absolutely would not with my 405gr whitetail setup that moves much faster. Done that and it honed my tracking skills.
I don't have the time to agree or disagree with what you say. I am confident that you have looked into this extensively.
The question for bowhunters is your set up and what do you want to hunt. Hypothetical questions do not kill animals. Light and fast setups are no good for dangerous game....they may work but an outfitter will tell you to stay at the house. Not because they don't understand the physics but because this is old math and you are not going to change the answer as to what works and what does not based upon 7 years of non-professional studies.
If you can help people make the right decision then help them. If you want to give seminars based upon empirical data that you have collected then by all means do that. Just pick and choose your audience accordingly.
once again....I am not taking a cheap shot at you. Bowhunting is not rocket science....it has been around forever.
