Default RE: need some quick insight/assistance - broadhead-fletching alignment

I find it interesting that almosteveryone is concerned about the broadhead spining correctly but seem to ignore the straightness of the rest of the arrow.
Not so, Len.It's a matter of starting off with the basics. Checking the arrows for straightness is one of the basic things I do when selecting my hunting arrows. If an arrow isn't straight, it doesn't get a broadhead mounted on it in the first place.

Straightness is one of the reasons I have such an overwhelming preference for aluminum arrows over carbon for my hunting arrows. Even the cedar arrows I use on my longbow are straighter and more consistent in spinethan most of the carbons I've run across.

Oops! There I go dragging another issue into the fray. Spine?!? [8D]
