Yes you can. You do not need to align the fletchings with the blades.

Yep. I shoot a 4 blade muzzy, and 3 feathers. Just make sure the b/head is aligned properly with no wobble, and the bow is tuned perfectly, shouldn't be a problem. Mine shoot great! If you download easton's guide to bow and arrow tuning, it goes into great detail.

People have been doing it for as long as I can remember. You don't see many people shooting four-fletch arrows do you?
