Firenock and Aerovane accuracy testing results...RAMCAT WINS!

On 31 October 2009, I tested 4 Broadheads for accuracy.  These broadheads included Ramcat, NAP Nightmare, Rocky Mountain Blitz (Right Offset) and Rocky Mountain Blitz (Left Offset).  The basis of the testing was to shoot two of the above listed broadheads to a Block Target 30 yards away.  If both arrows hit the center bullseye, the broadhead is classified as "Best"; if one arrow hits the bullseye and the second hits within 4 inches of the center, the broadhead is classified as "Good"; if both arrows hit greater than 4 inches from the center, the broadhead is classified as "Poor."  For all arrow / broadhead combinations that are classified as "Best", I continued the test at a 40 yard and 50 yard target.   I ensured the setup I am using for this test was properly tuned prior to shooting the broadheads by shooting through paper at 3 feet, 9 feet and 15 feet.  The result was a complete bullet hole.  I am using the Darton Pro 3500S set at 65 pounds and
29 inch Victory Archery VForce HV 350 arrows fletched with Aerovane II and Firenock practice nocks.

30 Yard Target Results
Ramcat - Best
NAP Nightmare - Best
RM Blitz (Right Offset) - Best
RM Blitz (Left Offset) - Best

40 Yard Target Results
Ramcat - Both arrows hit the bullseye
NAP Nightmare - Both arrows hit the bullseye
RM Blitz (Right Offset) - 1 arrow hit low 1"; 1 arrow hit left of the bullseye 1"
RM Blitz (Left Offset) - Both arrows hit the bullseye

50 Yard Target Results
Ramcat - 1 arrow hit the bullseye; 1 arrow hit left of the bullseye 1.5 "
NAP Nightmare - Both arrows hit left of the bullseye 2"   
RM Blitz (Right Offset) - 1 arrow hit below the bullseye 1"; 1 arrow hit left of the bullseye 4"
RM Blitz (Left Offset) - Both arrows hit left of the bullseye by 2.5"

In summary, the Ramcat appears to match the spinning effect (or rotational force) placed on the arrow by Aerovane II becoming a very accurate arrow / broadhead combination especially at longer ranges.
