[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2418590, member: 87243"] I don't see how having the weight forward would create any kind of stability issue other than improving it. Think arrows and spears - I know they are slower, but still a forward moving projectile. Weight forward is what makes these projectiles stable. A football does not have weight forward, so it needs more rotation to stabilize. An arrow has some roatation to improve stability, however a spear with sufficient weight forward needs no rotation to fly true. So while it may or may not cause other issues, I would think stability would improve? [/QUOTE]
