Default Straight or offset?

I am going to be re-fletching my arrows with blazers soon, whats the general feeling straight or offset?

I believe I read on Bohnings web site that they recommend offset. It's been a while though so I would log on and see.

Bohning recommends a 2 degree offset.

For shooting Broadheads, offset, helical. It may not look like much, but it will work.
