Fletching Question?

[Matchbook454]

I just bought a jig and some Blazers and am going to start fletching my own arrows. I am wondering what offset is best for a right handed shooter - left or right or does it make a difference?

If you are shooting w/ a releae, it really doesn't matter. W/ a helical, you'll get a bit more spin, but not much. Those Blazers are so short, there's not much twist there.

I think my blazers have a 1 degree offset. Don't think it would be necessary to fletch them helically. What do I know. Im learning too.

Right/Left doesn't matter with a release and shoot through arrow rests...I'm right handed and I offset left.

I like to go with a right helical or offset.

You will notice (sometimes) while practicing with broadheads with a left helical your heads will tend to loosen on impacts from the shaft spining left.

With a right helical and therefore theshaft spinning to the right your heads will always stay tight.

when i fletch an arrow using three of the same color vanes or feathers i just turn the nock so it lines up with oneand it can be up or down depending on the rest,these days most cock feathers should be up.

Thanks guys. Most of my arrows have been fletched right offset so as long as there is no difference I will fletch mine the same way.
