Default 2" Blazers - How much offset

Guys,
I'm shooting 2"s blazers straight fletch, but noticed a slight wobble at about 20 yrds.
Want to try offset like other post say.
My ? is how much, there isn't much room for offset with 2" blazers and acc's.

Thanks

what kind of rest are you shooting ?
I have a WB and my arrows are fletched offset as much as possible, as long as the whole base of the blazers sticks to the shaft, you'll be ok.

I shoot a Whisker.
I was going to try to offset, but it seemed like it would be harder to fletchwith the Bitzenburger.
I was hoping someone could tell me how many notches/setting on the Bitzenburger.
I found a good reply on Bowhunting.net
I notch left on the bottom and 1 right on the top.

Thanks

I'm using 2" Blazers with a full helical on A/C Superslims. I shoot them off a drop away on my Hoyt and through a WB on the BowTech with no problems on either. I've got excellent stability with Montecs out to 60 yards and probably beyond but that's where I run out of real estate.

Had you shot these arrows before, and if so what fletching. It's posible there is nothing wrong with the fletching. Maybe the FOC is too low and that's why you're seeing problems farther out.

Too light a point (FOC) and too much rear drag (offset) can create these problems, too.

Fletch them with a Helical clamp with as much offset as you can get and still keep things sitting flat on the arrow shaft. It may not look like a lot but it will work
