[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2418988, member: 87243"] I'm not trying to be argumentative at all on any of this, just discussion to me, so just to try to prevent it, let's not have this shift to a negative or demeaning/condescending argument 😀 A properly tuned bow/rest/arrow set up can shoot a bare shaft surprisingly well, again, the fletching make the arrows much more forgiving. Obviously you want to use fletchings, however all I'm saying is arrows CAN shoot well without them. Again, the bow, rest, arrows, and shooter (as far as proper release) must be in tune for them to shoot accurately. Proof of this is many videos you can watch doing what is called "bare shaft tuning", this is often done out to 30 yards (maybe more) to fine tune a bow setup. As far as only slightly front of center, it is still front of center. And I don't understand how the laws of physics would apply to one projectile, and not another....to keep point forward, weight needs to be slightly forward on spears, even if only slightly. I know bullets are different, and I am by no means an expert at all in this, but to my understanding, stability is achieved by either having weight foc or by rotation. Bullets are not foc weight, however they are spinning at extremely high RPM's. I very well may be wrong, but shifting weight slightly more forward would seem to help stability? [/QUOTE]
