Aron welcomes back great friend Bill Vanderheyden from Iron Will Outfitters to the show.  In a previous podcast we did with Tim Gillingham, that stirred up a few alternate opinions, that being Bill's as well.  They offer a "rebuttal" of sorts, serving up an alternate opinion on arrow and broadhead setups.  Bill has been working with a local university in Colorado conducting extensive studies on arrow flight and the components impact up it.  Components from the broadhead and point weight, shaft diameter, and vane material and configuration.
