Probably a study somewhere I don’t know about but I wonder how much something like that slows down an arrow with a fixed blade. Mechanical I could see an issue with deployment, could be wrong there though. For $150 if I can shoot through it and not lose too many fps I’m not too concerned about the cost of having a few small holes.I don't think it is meant to be shot thru. Just the one direction screen. I got an older primos that are supposed to be shot thru screens. But I never tried it.
