I'm watching Mythbusters on the plane today, and it got me thinking about how I would test, or at least WOULD LIKE TO TEST different archery myths, products, rumors, etc.
Seems like there are always questions about different arrow weights and speeds, different products, etc etc that could be pretty easily tested if someone put their mind to it.
So what have you heard or seen over the years that you'd like to see put to the test someday?
Some of the things that I've always wanted to thoroughly and properly tested are:
FOC effect on flight and penetration
Arrow stiffness vs penetration
Momentum/arrow weight vs Energy for penetration
Starflight FOB's
NAAP (not NAP mind you!) Slide Hammers
There are common perceptions about some of these, and some common conflicting view points. Given time, money, and a controlled experimental environment, I'd love to see some of these 'myths' either proven or debunked!
Any others that come to mind for you guys?
