Abstract: An apparatus for adding weight to an arrow and a system and method of correcting the trajectory of the arrow with the added weight is disclosed and described. The arrow can include a compensator designed to fit as a sleeve on 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.

Abstract: A dual-diameter arrow shaft is disclosed. An arrow shaft is disclosed with a proximal diameter and a distal diameter, wherein the proximal diameter is smaller than the distal diameter, wherein the distal diameter is approximately equal to the diameter of a standard shaft hunting arrow, while the proximal diameter is approximately equal to that of a micro-diameter shaft hunting arrow. The arrow may have more weight front of center, and the distal diameter of the arrow may be suited for installing standard-sized inserts and additions to the arrow, while the proximal diameter is smaller than the distal diameter for better flight. The distal diameter is large enough for a sleeve with extra weight to fit snugly over the arrow shaft.

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.

Abstract: A hunting arrow for tracking target animals is disclosed and described. The arrow can include a chamber. The arrow may also include a transmitter housing that is installable into the chamber. A pair of bores extending through the transmitter housing and chamber may be configured and adapted for receiving a pair of shear pins. The shear pins may secure the housing in the chamber. The transmitter housing may comprise an animal engagement member, such as a hook. The transmitter housing is ejected from the chamber when the arrow strikes a target animal and the hook stops the forward momentum of the transmitter housing with sufficient force to shear the shear pins, thereby ejecting and embedding the transmitter housing in the hide of the animal. The transmitter within the housing may broadcast the location of the animal to the hunter to enable easy tracking of the animal, if wounded.
