FOC, center of pressure and performance
willie:
In addition to the gyroscopic benefits of spin, perhaps there is also a beneficial reduction of turbulence? or thickness of the boundary layer?

Ok I won't ask for the math anymore. Ifen I was to understand it though I could shoot farther arrows than you guys. . :-\ O:) ;D Arvin

LOL......... Arvin, Its not like I try to follow the calculus either, I am too old to remember how.
I find the basic principles described to be of interest, but will leave it up to experimentation to see if the extra friction from a faster spin is a net gain or loss when glueing and trimming feathers on an arrow.
TSA:
i came across this info- and thought i would just drop it here
