[QUOTE="OkieBowie, post: 601391, member: 26507"] Please re-read what I wrote. I did not say temperature and altitude don't play a role. Temperature and altitude do play a role, but the effects are external in the form of changes to air density causing more or less drag, resulting in how fast the projectile loses its initial velocity. Can you point to some articles/studies that demonstrate this common cause and effect of internal pressure changes on hollow projectiles (such as arrows)? [I]My searches have turned up nothing[/I]. [I]Something to ponder[/I]: If competitive archers are being forced to change their aim point to compensate for changes to their arrows' [U]internal[/U] pressure ([I]the pressure differs from external[/I]); Why not drill needle sized holes in their knocks to keep the pressure constant and eliminate the need to change their aim point?
