Abstract
A system and method of correcting the trajectory of a hunting arrow is disclosed and described. The arrow can include a compensator coupled to a shaft of the arrow and the compensator has diameter that is larger than a diameter of the shaft of the arrow. A thickness of the compensator, which is measured as the difference in the diameter of the compensator and the diameter of the shaft of the arrow, is configured to enable a user to aim the arrow with a bow that has been sighted for a standard arrow.
Claims11
A system for adding a payload to an arrow, the arrow having a shaft, said system comprising:
- a chamber formed within the arrow shaft in a distal section of the arrow shaft;
- wherein the distal section of the arrow shaft has a diameter greater than that of a proximal section of the arrow shaft;
- a chamber access opening;
- a housing;
- a compression fitting for removably securing the housing in the chamber through the chamber access opening;
- and
- wherein the diameter of the distal section of the arrow shaft is chosen such that when the distal section of the arrow shaft is rested upon an arrow rest of a bow, it raises a trajectory of the arrow a sufficient amount to enable a user to aim the arrow as if a weight of the housing had not been added.
