So you're standing in the middle of a forest of .005 trees/m^2. Each tree has a radius of 1 meter. How far on average will the arrow go before hitting a tree?

If you fire it straight up it will never hit a tree.

So there's a tree density of 0.016/m^2. This assumes that the arrow has a 1.0 probability of hitting a tree after covering 63.7 m^2. Assuming the width of the arrow is w, it can travel 63.7/w meters before hitting a tree. If the trees are evenly distributed, then the average should be half of this.
