Summary

If you have ever wondered what arrow vane combination controls broadheads the best, how different are the aerodynamics between a fixed and mechanical broadhead, or does a 4mm arrow shaft really make a difference, then you should be excited to hear that prominent bowhunter, and author, James Yates (Western Bowhunter Magazine) has published the data that he independently gathered while working to answer these and many other questions that bowhunters wrestle with. In today's episode, Jacob is unpacking some of that data and research that James has put forth. In part 1 of this series, Jacob will share which of the 10 mechanical broadheads held groups closest to field points, and how fixed blade broadheads faired in holding groups at 60 yards, as well as other interesting data points.
