[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2527838, member: 5412"] I had the TV on a new program called North Woods Law. Its about GW's in the NE. First time to see this, and one of the GW's responded to a call of a lost deer by a bow hunter. The hunter said he shot the deer at 10 yds, and it ran away, and he couldn't find it. The GW tells him that 10 yds is too close to shoot a deer with a bow. The arrow needs more distance to develop its kentic energy, hence the wounded deer. My knowledge of bullet ballistics is more refined than arrow kenitics. When a bullet leaves the barrel, it instantly starts to loose velocity/kenetic energy. What makes an arrow different? The GW In question says an arrow needs 20-30 yards to develop its speeds. I'm always willing to learn something different, but this is a new one on me. :pms2: [/QUOTE]
