[QUOTE="OkieBowie, post: 599904, member: 26507"] I can assure you that arrows hitting higher at higher elevations has nothing to do with the "[FONT=Arial]ambient pressure within an arrows shaft[/FONT]". If that were the case, then we would all be pressurizing our arrow shafts from compressed air bottles. Along with having to replace O-ring seals on the point & knock ends. [I]This would of course lead to over-pressure, super-pressure, hyper-pressure arrows, and tweakers in E.R.s from exploding shafts.[/I] The reason arrows (or bullets) fly further at high altitudes vs. sea-level has to do with the air being thinner. Thinner air, less resistance, slower decline in arrow's velocity. [/QUOTE]
