And we've done just that.
When it comes to rifle ballistics, everything starts with a known ballistic coefficient (BC). This is a measure of the projectile's ability to overcome air resistance in flight. It's a critical piece of information for modeling the bullet's trajectory.
With arrows, we don't have a BC to start with.
Every arrow is unique, and the drag force it experiences in flight is highly variable depending on its components. This makes it difficult to accurately model an arrow's trajectory.
Other archery software products estimate your arrow's drag properties based on the components you use, or they scale existing sets of marks by a derived factor.
With our proprietary algorithm and process, we calculate the exact drag properties of your unique arrow build.
Think of this like calculating a ballistic coefficient for your individual arrow. The result? The most precise sight tapes, sight marks, and cuts for your setup.
Once we've captured the downrange characteristics of your arrow, every mark, cut, and data point is meticulously computed through our comprehensive arrow trajectory model.
We don't take shortcuts.
No approximation, no extrapolation, and no estimation. The data we provide is calculated to an extreme degree of precision.
