It's probably best to note I am in fact studying rocket science...

There is actually NO difference between the tungsten point and the steel point, except for the following things:

1: the tungsten point is much harder, and wont flatten on impact with any wood like the steel point may

2: the density of the tungsten point is greater than the steel, and means the point is smaller (shorter in fact), which means the extra length of the steel point makes the FOC of the arrow greater.

3: steel points come in 90-100-110 gn weights, and tungstens come in 100-110-120gn weights.

They are the only 3 differences between the two points.

4: the shorter point length of a tugsten pile will to some extent make the arrow wippier as the working length of the arrow is longer.
