    Jörg says the broadheads penetrate deeper because the veins move into the slot (reducing resistance), but then the broadhead on the long arrow also penetrated deeper, where the veins did not even go into the material. So obviously the broadhead tips themselves do something better.

    Looking at the results of the smaller bolt Im thinking if the flights were made to detach when under pressure from the target (maybe have them mounted in slots, so they push out backwards )it might get further into the target.

    • @blahorgaslisk7763
      @blahorgaslisk7763 3 роки тому +4

      Might be hard to get them to stay with the bolt during flight but still break away on entering the target. Unless... Idea... Make the nock a breakaway part and have the the fins attach to it. The string would accelerate the bolt by pushing the nock and that way it will stay with the bolt. The fit between the bolt and the nock can be loose enough that it easily is stripped from the bolt when entering the target.
      OK so it can probably be done, but the question is how much of a difference would it make.

    The vanes aren't as big of a factor as you made them out to be. The target material resists compression and takes energy to compress robbing it from the projectile. The boradhead cuts material in a wider path than the shaft. The material around the shaft has to be displaced regardless, but the broadhead allows the material to be compressed to a lesser degree locally- it spreads the compression throughout the now "freed" material.

    It seems to me that the bodkin tips would be a prefarable "all round" type of bolt. If you're firing at a moving target, it's hard to guarantee that a broadhead will hit soft tissue.
    But with the bodkin, if you hit a ribcage, it's tip is likely to cause the bodkin to slide in between the ribs, even if it first hits a rib directly by glancing.
    Or if you hit skull bone, the bodkin is powerful enough to break through.

    • @Gk2003m
      @Gk2003m 3 роки тому

      Nope. The bodkin, while cool, generally does not penetrate as well as a field point. I’ve tested it, both on archery targets and on pork shoulder.
      What the bodkin penetrates effectively is chain mail. The person breaking into your home? The odds on him wearing chain mail ever, let alone while invading your home, are effectively zero.

    • @yodan00b

    I´ve made not so good experience using these archery mats. I´ve combined five layers to stop bolts from a very strong crossbow (tenpoint nitro xrt), but from 50m distance the bolt penetrates the mats to the nock, which means you have to dissassembla the target after shooting. I´ve changed the target to a bag full of rags (22kg) and this target stops the bolt even from very close distance. The first advantage is, that you are able to withdraw the bolt with two fingers. The second, that the price is something around 40€ instead of 180€.

    Something to consider: perhaps you don’t want the whole arrow to penetrate that deeply. Perhaps it’s better to not glue the tip retainer/insert in, but have it pop out when the vanes hit flesh. The broadhead will continue to travel into the target.... this is how I’m doing it. Using expandable broadheads of course. The ones that best fit the Adder are the TruGlo Titanium X.

    • @benedict6962
      @benedict6962 3 роки тому

      A good portion of the momentum is in the body of the arrow. Even if you don't glue the tip on, I don't think the tip will travel much further in without the rest of the body pushing. Unless the tip has an explosive or something, of course.

    • @Gk2003m
      @Gk2003m 3 роки тому +1

      While you are correct about that, I’ve tested this two ways and found the following: a) the head goes into a slab of raw beef about 1 inch further than the stuck shaft. And b) if you have a nail in the shaft, it carries the momentum you seek. What that does is push the broadhead even further into the meat, and turns it to the side.
      But here’s the thing: if you want venison, virtually any full-size single shot xbow is a better choice. They will generate more momentum, and be far more accurate at longer range. The Adder is NOT a hunting weapon; it is a tactical weapon! The objectives are significantly different. In hunting, maximum penetration = quicker bleed-out = more humane kill that is easier to track and recover. In tactical deployment? Your objective is not bloodletting. Your objective is to disrupt the processes of your assailant as quickly and effectively as possible. So a pass-thru is not as desirable as having as many pieces of dangerous stuff lodged in the assailant as possible, inflicting as much discomfort as possible.
      While I dig Jeorg’s experiments and learn from them, I think the 130 pound Adder with my arrow configuration is the most effective from a tactical standpoint.

    • @Gk2003m
      @Gk2003m 3 роки тому

      Right. You can’t pull it out, and can’t push it through. Not only that, but if the insert is not glued into the shaft that shaft is more likely to fragment on its way in - thereby producing even more shrapnel inside the assailant. And if you set it up so that some irritant, such as capsaicin, is released from inside the bolt when the head separates from the shaft, it becomes even more effective at distracting your assailant from his chosen task. And then the multi-shot capability of the Adder.... you could really mess up the plans of someone who has chosen to invade your home. And remember that you ARE getting significant penetration.

      @@sirjayyessir3088 search through older vidoes. He was testing an updated 150 lb limb. I think he said if he goes higher as on the CIA adder he has to make the cocking mechanism bar 6mm thick. If you check your ADDA it's just a pressed steel bar about 1.2 mm thick.

      @@mrinalnandi3988 Thanks. I think my question was too basic - I understand there is a trade-off between velocity and mass of projectile (in fact energy is the square of velocity, so one might infer lighter=better). To rephrase my Q, how would you find the optimal balance between speed and mass? Obviously trial and error will solve this, but I was curious why he chose 20-something grams instead of... e.g. 30-something.
      Edit: I'm not a physicist so go easy on me :)

      @@xntumrfo9ivrnwf Penetration really depends on the momentum (p=MV). You're correct, lighter bolts move faster, and have more kinetic energy initially, but just like they're easier to accelerate, they're also easier to decelerate.. once they slow down, mass matters more.
      Sure, you could calculate the optimal mass, there is some golden mean based on the bow power, aerodynamics, target properties, but it gets really complicated really fast.. why spend hours slaving over the math, when you can just weigh down some bolts and test shoot them?

    The best archery target for what you are doing is stacked cardboard strapped together with ratchet straps. You shoot into the skinny edge of the cardboard sheets. You can unstack and see exactly what happened. Remember to shuffle the cardboard when you restack.

    Hang on doesnt the archery test disprove the idea that the broadhead is cutting a hole for the veins and that is what is letting them cut deeper? Neither of the arrows penetrated up to the veins on the arrow itself so they had no impact but the broadhead still went deeper.

  • @davidhoffman6980

    So why not develop a mechanism to stabilize the bolt without fletchlings? Some way to get the bolt to rotate before leaving the bow or something?
    Then you could have a bolt that is accurate, but doesn't have the additional drag of the fletchlings in flight, and through the target.

      it can't be less than 500mm long and must be design for a two handed operation.
      if it follows those limitation it is assumed that it's a hunting tool and there is no need for any kind of registration or permit.
      if it does not follows those limitations it's a prohibited weapon.
