1. A system for adding a payload to an arrow, the arrow having a shaft, said system comprising:
a chamber formed within the arrow shaft in a distal section of the arrow shaft;
wherein the distal section of the arrow shaft has a diameter greater than that of a proximal section of the arrow shaft;
a chamber access opening;
a housing;
a compression fitting for removably securing the housing in the chamber through the chamber access opening; and
wherein the diameter of the distal section of the arrow shaft is chosen such that when the distal section of the arrow shaft is rested upon an arrow rest of a bow, it raises a trajectory of the arrow a sufficient amount to enable a user to aim the arrow as if a weight of the housing had not been added.
