Excellent presentation! I will say your technical rationality in your videos is excellent. And you also explain it so a novice can understand. Thanks Ronald I've been subscribed for a couple years now! Really appreciate your videos.
You should really provide links to the studies you mention. A lot of us would like to see those for ourselves. Also, to be exhaustively thorough, you should have discussed the effect of spine on oscillation, and the effect of oscillation on surface area, therefore also the Drag Coefficient. It may also be useful to discuss how the potential energy due to impact is converted, which can display as blown off nocks, broken shafts, and heat, which can cause a lost tip in the target (as the heat can weaken the glue used to hold the tip). It would also be interesting to see what difference spin rate (and therefore fletching style - helical vs straight) would make on those oscillations and overall trajectory.
If you care about the details, there's actually a lot of amazing tests and videos conducted by others that all concluded the same. And it's always better that you do your own test too rather than just rely on conclusion someone else had made. Much of the rest of the things you mentioned actually already had plenty videos on TH-cam testing and showing the results. Try to search for them. There are maybe a few small things that are irrelevant, for example the glue coming loose is simply a poor gluing job. In the last 11 years of archery, I never had a glue point fail on me (for arrows that I personally made). Even when the impact is so hard that the steel point flattened and carbon shaft shattered, the glue has never failed. Identical components, made by another person with less care, hard impact has indeed sheared the glue. So this is really just the gluing procedure, such as preparing the surfaces, cleaning the surfaces, preparation of the glue, curing of the glue. Carbon shaft are excellent heat conductors, so they spread out the heat fairly quickly and won't cause heat damage to the glue simply from an impact.
You’re doing a valuable service to everyone in this community by making these educational videos. You have my full admiration and respect. I have been putting this video on to listen to while I commute places, picking up more and more with each re-watch. Great mental stimulation, and I like your voice in which you explain things very clearly. Please keep it up! 🙇♂️
Thank you for this amazingly detailed video! Although not quite the same but from a weight vs trajectory p.o.v, I accidentally did something similar. I got 3 different arrows of the same length from three different manufacturers - 600 spine, 500 spine and 400 spine with different gpi that at the end of the day, with a 100 point weight at the front came to be within 10-20 grains of each other! I shot them all from the same bows - a 30# AF Tartar, a 35# Daylite Phoenix, a 30# AF ZhuRan - all with different arrow passes (hence I didn't look at target hitting but rather clustering and trajectory of the arrows). With my Tartar and the Phoenix, they performed almost the same with all, except perhaps the 600 because of the low stiffness but with the ZhuRan, it clearly loves the 400 spine over the 500 or the 600 probably because of the kick it has on the arrows with the early Mongol style. I am shocked that the spine actually doesn't do much of a difference if the FOC goes up front beyond a certain point. I have ordered 300 spine arrows to see if this betters my grouping because right now, I really don't see any difference in spines as long as the overall weights remain the same!
If you shoot an arrow in space, it'll just stay its path unless it meets a body with enough gravitational force to affect the path. But since there's no air resistance, the orientation of the arrow may be anything, depending on the initial launch. It won't correct itself like on Earth, so if the tail ends up in front, so be it and it'll just stay the course.

Excellent 👌
I googled "what happens if you shoot an arrow in space" landet here and im stickin✌️

Excellent video. Your explanation is very clear. I like very much. Thank you.
Excellent presentation! thanks for sharing
Superb info as always
Amazing as usual. A very interesting video, my friend. Only heavy points for me from now on 😁
Loved the flight arrow explanation at the end!
Many archers will appreciate this in depth analysis. I know I will heavily implement what I learned in my next batch of flight arrows
panjangnya cerita bang 😅
Tengah training stamina le tu 🤣
thank you very much,
