    You mean packaging claims on the box won't magically make your arrows perform inch groups at 40 yards?!

    That's disappointing. :lol:

    No, I just thought it was a interesting video, and thought I would share it.

    It would be interesting to know how the company tests the claims they make as well.

    I'm not sure his spine tests were accurate. By shortening the length of the shaft being tested...I would think the weight on his machine would become grossly inadequate to impact the shaft spine on such a short length.

    He could have made the whole thing a lot shorter and proven the same point by just shooting the arrows at the start and saying there wasn't enough advantage to justify the more expensive arrows based on his groupings. He would have made the same point without claiming a big company is making false claims about their product where they didn't have a rebuttal.

    Yes, it was a little interesting.

    :lol: Why me? I'm not in the arrow making business. I'm just a guy that works here.

    Although as others have pointed out, his testing is not without his flaws.

    Marketing fluff! Just about like every other product out there.
