Default RE: Arrow Straightness - How Much Does it Matter?

ORIGINAL: davepjr71

This may have to do with the spine and i apologize if this changes the subject. But how do you fellows handle a weight issue on a shaft? When


I place 2 of my arrows on the spinner they rotate to a specific point w/ Blazers. I even tore off one of the wraps w/blazers and re-did and the shaft spun to the same point.
I read about something similar. The guy called it the float test. He would plug up both end of the bare shaft and float it in water. The side that always spun to the top was the weak/light side of the spine and the side the spun to the bottom was the stiff/heavy side of the spine. It sounded like it made semse but I don't really know if it is true or not.
