Many pics exist in this forum of the arrows I shoot from my recurve, the yellow feathered ones, and from my compound, the motley crew of mis matched ones, some aluminum, some carbon, all with different fletchings.
Yesterday I ran an experiment: I shot some of the motley ones in the recurve.
On that day I was shooting well, so I feared that I'd wreck one of my yellow feathered ones. After the first group of five where I got a nice tight group, I got the arrows then decided to shoot the "other" ones. These are carbon, but they're an inch longer. Both bows have a "flipper" arrow rest:
So the only thing I changed was the type of arrows. So I shot, and I got the same sized group, but it was two inches to the left.
I will run more experiments to see if this was just a fluke or whether there's something to it.
Anyone have any solid data, personal experience, with this?
