Question 11. What Is A "full Metal Jacket" Arrow?

Answer :

Full Metal Jacket technology is a patented arrow construction only from Easton. This revolutionary arrow combines the best attributes of carbon and aluminum in a heavy-duty configuration. The small diameter and thick wall carbon-fiber core with Hidden Insert Technology (HIT) provides superior penetration, durability and accuracy. The aerospace alloy aluminum jacket provides more consistent spine, straightness, and higher stored energy than all-carbon arrows. The end result is an arrow with outstanding accuracy, durability and bone-crushing penetration. In addition, FMJ’s innovative metal jacket design delivers easy arrow removal from tough, high-density 3D targets, when compared to all-carbon arrows.

Question 12. How Do I Measure Correct Arrow Length?

Answer :

Correct arrow length is measured from the bottom, inside of the nock groove (deepest point where the string goes into the nock) to the cut end of the shaft, not including the point or point insert. Visit the downloads section for free download of the Easton Tuning Guide, where you can find a diagram for further illustration.

Question 13. What Does The Numbering System On Aluminum Arrows Means?

Answer :

The four-digit number refers to the outside diameter and wall thickness of the shaft. The first two numbers are the APPROXIMATE outside diameter to the nearest 64ths of an inch. The second two numbers are the wall thickness in thousands of an inch. For example, a 2514 shaft would be APPROXIMATELY 25/64th of an inch in diameter and .014 of an inch wall thickness (Easton controls actual dimensions to 5 decimal places). OD and wall thickness are the two variables in controlling spine for aluminum arrows.

Question 14. Why Is The Spine Of An Arrow Important?

Answer :

Spine is very important when it comes to tuning, shooting and grouping your arrows. If you do not have the correct arrow spine for your bow set up, you are going to get erratic arrow flight and poor shooting groups. Having the proper arrow spine is key to optimizing the grouping of your arrows and for the best possible accuracy. Use the Easton Shaft Selector or reference the Shaft Selection Chart in the back of the Easton Arrow Guide to make sure you are shooting the correct arrow spine for your set-up.

Question 15. How Does Easton Measure Arrow Weight?

Answer :

Spine is very important when it comes to tuning, shooting and grouping your arrows. If you do not have the correct arrow spine for your bow set up, you are going to get erratic arrow flight and poor shooting groups. Having the proper arrow spine is key to optimizing the grouping of your arrows and for the best possible accuracy. Use the Easton Shaft Selector or reference the Shaft Selection Chart in the back of the Easton Arrow Guide to make sure you are shooting the correct arrow spine for your set-up.

Question 16. What Is Kinetic Energy?

Answer :

Kinetic energy of an arrow is the energy it has due to its motion. The more kinetic energy an arrow has, the better the penetration will be when holding other variables constant. To determine the kinetic energy of your hunting set up, or to see how changing factors influences kinetic energy, use Easton’s Shaft Selector.
