Two things. The fastest arrow out of the bow is not always the fastest arrow at the target. Secondly, an arrow does not achieve its terminal cross wind speed as soon as it leaves the bow. The cross wind will cause a force proportional to the cross sectional area to accelerate the arrow down wind. The only thing that will oppose this is the inertia and hence the mass of the arrow.
