Dena - Given up on talkin about hunting from a ground blind already??

I will do my best to get out there and join the group of hecklers..... you know I am good at that!!!

[BrandonH]

If anyone would like a list of challenging tech questions feel free to send me a PM and I'll send them your way Dena said last night that she is going to teach everyone how to tune there bow, build bowstrings, make cedar arrows, and time permitting even build a self-bow in about an hour

[Tomme]

I knew her when she was one of the little people(....er....still is).


Congratulations Ms. Pro Staffer. You really rock.

[Chew]

Congrats Dena. I'm proud of you and happy for you.

[Hot4huntin]

Thanks Chew!!

Bullrdr, I did my ground blind gig! Albeit not on stage, but from the ground blind section.

BrandonH, you forgot the topic of "how to hide a body so no one can find it!!!" I don't think tech stuff is on my agenda. In fact, I know it is not! Now, where is the disabling button for PMs...

In real tissues, outcome-data manifestly exhibits …

While impact momentum cannot be used as a stand-alone
predictor of penetration it does show

positive correlation

with outcome penetration; it demonstrates

relevancy. This
means impact momentum can be used as a predictive function

when all other arrow penetration factors are constant.
With a constant arrow, real tissue data confirms: Average
tissue penetration increase is

directly proportional to the
increase in impact momentum. Several instances of this have
been presented in Updates, and yet another will be showing up
in the new Updates.
Among actual outcomes, kinetic energy has failed to show
positive correlation with tissue penetration. It is not useful
as either predictor or predictive function.
On casual observation it might appear that kinetic energy
should be applicable. After all, a substantial portion of it
is represented by the arrow's velocity, and arrow velocity is
a contributive component to momentum. However, any direct
kinetic energy application overlooks important factors: (1)
the disproportional increase in penetration-resistance

actually exhibited

by tissues as velocity increases; (2) the
mechanics of the impulse of force during penetration and; (3)
the fact that, by its very definition, kinetic energy cannot
be used as either a measure or indicator of force.
It is due to disproportional resistance increase and
impulse mechanics that the penetration/kinetic-energy
relationship steadfastly exhibits decrement during tissue
testing. The penetration-increase to kinetic-energy-increase
ratio is not proportional.
Decrement should not be confused with a negative
correlation. It simply indicates that the rate of penetrationincrease
constantly decreases as impact kinetic energy
increases. With a constant arrow,will the percentage of

penetration gain become smaller?

I have always wondered and didn't know who to ask.

[txhunter]

hmmmm... so that's the answer.

In real tissues, outcome-data manifestly exhibits …

I didn't think it manifestly exbibited...

[Hot4huntin]

Buff, thanks for asking.

In response to your question~

Yes, with a constant arrow, the percentage of penetration

gain becomes smaller each time impact kinetic energy is increased by a set amount.








P.S. I read Dr. Ed Ashby also.

Dena, I still want to know which arrow is better, the XX75s Gametamers or the Easton XX75 Gamegetters. Also, which broadhead would be better, Hell Raiser from Thunderhead, or the Hell Razor that NAP makes? Bob

[Hot4huntin]

I still would like to know, which is more comfortable, the couch or the guest bed?

OUCH!!!!!!!

[BOBSTER]

It really doesn't matter anymore, I have been on both for so long now. Bob

[timhicks]

Dena congrats!! I remember when I was asked to be pro staff and writer for another outdoor magazine..I was pumped..still am but them darn editors...sure take my long story and make it short?? Congrats and proud for you

[Horitexan]

Congratulations Dena!
