Macbow,
Please delete that post before some one from the NFAS sees it.
There was about three months of wrangling and god knows how many pages of discussion on www.nfas.net last year on what actually constituted an AFB.
If they get hold of this it'll probably mean world war three is imminent.
But seriously the point you raise is very valid,when you consider the technology that goes into a modern AFB and yes we shoot wooden arrows out of them.
Wood is wood and by its very nature, however well matched a set of arrows are, they are all going to be different.
Not so with carbon or ally.
This could be,as you said,a reall hornets nest of discussion.
O woe is me.
