Archers who shoot a recurve or longbow normally use arrows weighing grains or more. Your arrow weight has to be calculated against your draw weight for the best performance.
Photo Credit: Victory Archery. Bentcik said the most important factor in arrow weight is safety. He said bow manufacturers set their safety ratings around 5 grains per pound to prevent injuries. It could blow up your bow or make the string jump off the cam, causing an injury or damaging your bow. Light arrows are fast and shoot flat, making them ideal for long-distance shots. Heavier arrows also penetrate or pass through animals better than light arrows because they retain more momentum.
You must weigh these pros and cons when buying arrows. Light and heavy arrows have their time and place. All that matters is what happens when the stick meets the deer.
CJ87 Member Aug 20, Is that a 10 or 12 inch bee stinger on the front? I'm looking at getting one but don't know whether to get a 10 or 12 inch and my local archery shops don't carry any good stabilizers for me to compare. Great looking bow too! What is the lightest heavy arrow you recommend for hunting? I think I'm going to break down and buy some heavy hunting arrows. I'm shooting 70 lbs, 29" arrows that are only grains.
BlackEagle Banned Aug 20, The markers are irrelevant unless we know what your pins are set at. Are they set at 10,15,20,25? Or 20,30,40,50? What speed are you shooting? So, to answer your question Fill everyone in on all the specs of your bow and arrows.
BlackEagle said:. DYI hunting said:. I was just stating facts, arrows will drop more the slower you sling them. Calculations are largely based on the Exterior Ballistics of Bows and Arrows paper.
How We Test - The Authors. Basic Settings: Arrow Speed FPS : Total Arrow Weight grains : Additional Arrow Settings Optional : Important Note: You can provide additional fletching settings and shaft length below to obtain even more accurate calculations, as they have a certain impact on arrow drag and stability. Find Crossbow Review:. Crossbow Finder Draw Weight — any — lbs. The maximum height an arrow fired by a bow can reach is around 66 blocks. An arrow fired in water experiences much more drag than in air: it moves less than 8 blocks before completely losing horizontal speed and falling straight down, although the knockback of the arrow remains unaffected.
It also leaves a trail of bubbles in its wake. There is a random variable to the trajectory of an arrow, given by this. The inaccuracy is relatively small, becoming noticeable over larger distances. The inaccuracy of different arrow delivery devices may differ. Dispensers fire with an inaccuracy of 6, while bows fire with an inaccuracy of 1. An arrow's speed determine the damage it inflicts. They inflict up to 5 damage from a medium-charged bow, and 1 from a bow with no charge. Arrows fired from dispensers always do 3 of damage unless their velocity is modified by an external source.
Arrows trigger damage immunity on hit. However, unlike other methods of damage that may bypass invulnerability under certain conditions, arrows hitting the mob while it is invulnerable lose all speed and drop to the ground, dealing no damage unless they contact another mob.
Two players with arrows sticking out of them. Arrows also stick into objects they come in contact with and remain there for one minute before disappearing; the distance from the object and the angle determine how far into the target the arrow penetrates. Such arrows may be retrievable.
If the arrow has any custom potion effects NBT tag CustomPotionEffects , all potion effects, including vanilla potion effects NBT tag Potion are removed 30 seconds after the arrow stops moving. If an arrow is stuck in a block, and that block is broken or disappears e. Arrows can bounce off mobs immune to damage like the wither under the "wither armor" effect and a perching ender dragon. Arrows shot through lava or if there's at least a 2 block gap fire catch on fire and show an appropriate animation until they pass through water.
Like arrows shot from a bow with the Flame enchantment, they can set other entities they hit on fire for 5 seconds as well as ignite TNT and campfires. Arrows can get visually stuck in players in Java Edition , although not any other mobs. They appear as regular arrows regardless of type. An arrow can activate a wooden button , wooden pressure plate , a tripwire , or a target. If the arrow sticks in the switch, the switch remains activated until the arrow despawns after one minute.
Target blocks emit a redstone pulse for one second, as opposed to the static depressed state of the other switches. Non-wooden switches are not affected by arrows. When arrows are fired into the sides of blocks, they change their orientation to point more downward than their original flight path might indicate. This can cause them to intersect and thus trigger switches above them that they didn't actually hit, or block rails above them.
Arrows are affected by explosions while they are in flight. Since explosions can increase the speed of an arrow, they can also increase the damage dealt by them. Tipped arrows are arrows that imbue a potion effect when hitting a mob or player.
The status effect is the same as the regular power effect for the potion. If a bow is enchanted with Infinity , tipped arrows are still consumed. Arrows of Harming and arrows of Healing when used against undead mobs do not add a static amount of damage to the arrow. However, if the arrow would deal more than 12 damage, the harming effect is entirely neutralized.
If crafted with a water bottle, the arrow is called an arrow of Splashing. If crafted with Mundane, Awkward, or Thick potions, it is called a tipped arrow. All four kinds generate blue particles in flight and upon landing, but otherwise behave like regular arrows. In particular, arrow of Splashing has no effect on fire and campfires and when shot from a bow with the Flame enchantment, can light campfires and TNT just like regular arrows on fire.
In Java Edition , the uncraftable tipped arrow is a tipped arrow with no effect that is unobtainable in regular gameplay. It is available in two variants that don't stack together:. A spectral arrow confers the Glowing status effect for 10 seconds. The Glowing effect creates an outline of the target, which is visible through blocks, and colored based on the target's team white by default. Even if a bow is enchanted with Infinity , spectral arrows are still consumed.
In Bedrock Edition , arrows use the following item data values:. Issues relating to "Arrow" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there. Some arrows stick into sugar canes.
