WORLD CLASS TECHNOLOGY
BENEFITING EVERY ARCHER
The most sophisticated microelectronics technology ever applied in the field of archery can help any archer select equipment and hone their skill. Shooting through down-range equipment is now a thing of the past.
Durability and Ease of Use - TESTED AT 5000g
To use, simply thread the arrow tip to the arrow in a conventional manner and shoot at the target. The electronic system, housed in the field point, activates when the arrow leaves the bow and when it strikes the target while measuring arrow performance more than a thousand times in between..

HEAD-TO-HEAD NOTHING OUTPERFORMS THE VELOCITIP SYSTEM
The Velocitip Ballistic System allows for accurate and efficient testing of BOWS, ARROWS and any ACCESSORY that affects arrow flight.. Wiith unprecedented detail the system provides previously unavailable metrics using downrange ballistic data.

Patented Full Flight CaptureTM for In-Flight Data Recording of Arrow Ballistic Performance
The micro-electronic system housed in the Velocitip Electronic Field Point includes an accelerometer, micro-controller and non-volatile memory. The system continuously records acceleration data throughout the arrow’s flight and also captures the time of flight. The flight-data is saved in the field point memory in 4 shot groups.
Extended Downrange Performance Delivers a Maximum Amount of Ballistic Data
To collect data far downrange, the Velocitip Electronic Field Point records flight data for over 3/4 of a second for each shot. We find that the increased shot distances provide some of the best comparative data because the affects of differences in arrow drag increase with increasing shot-distance. Although you will have to learn the maximum distance for your equipment, we offer the following approximations for the max. shot distance:

Use the Ergonomically Designed Handheld Docking Station for Download, Processing and Immediate Display of Precise Trajectory and Measured Ballistic Values
After taking any of 1-4 shots, the field point is removed from the arrow and plugged into the docking station. dThe flight-data is downloaded and saved to the Docking Station where it is immediately processed for display of the measured ballistic data. 100 Yards of precise trajectory plus measured ballistic values for each of the 4 shots, include:
- Velocity at bow and at target
- Kinetic Energy at bow and at target
- % Retained Energy (KE@target/KE@bow)
- Momentum at bow and at target
- Total time-of-flight
- Average speed for each shot
- Measured arrow drag
- 4 shot group averages and standard deviations

Save Collected Flight Data using the Portable Docking Station for Immediate Review and Download
Ballistic data for up to 64 4-Shot Sets can be stored in the handheld docking station for immediate review anytime. The ballistic data can also be downloaded to a PC to create reports like the example below.
