Thinking about changing things up this year? Give this inexpensive yet uncompromising high-momentum arrow build a shot.

Compound hunters are finally moving away from arrows that sacrifice all else in the name of speed. The better option is to build an arrow that is tough to break and generates more penetration because it is heavier. Using quality components and a robust broadhead, you can put together a build with increased momentum, FOC, and structural integrity.

The more momentum an object in motion possesses, the harder it is to slow down. More mass means more momentum, which translates to more penetration. Heavier builds with that mass distributed toward the front of the arrow (FOC) offer improved penetration, efficiency, and flight stability. Paired with a nearly indestructible two-blade broadhead, you can count on penetration no matter what. An arrow built with these concepts in mind, tailored to the individual hunter, is a no-fail system that will get the job done every time.  

And building better arrows doesn’t have to be expensive. If you’re like me and have a pocket full of tags, a skinny wallet, and lose arrows like its your job, consider this budget-friendly build.
