DannyD,
This will start some stuff, but I shoot straight fletch. I gave up on helical fletching 18yrs ago. So I don't have arrow spin. My arrows fly very straight. I don't have any problems, but I am shooting 5" vanes and XX75 arrows. The 2314s I am using are cut to 26" on a 30" draw, tipped with a Muzzy 130gr broaddhead and I am shooting 70lbs at 260'/sec. I have had many people like Dave say it won't work, but it does. I have killed enough big game animals to prove it to me.

I appreciate the explaination and believe me I am way too inexperienced to say that this is that is flat out wrong or absolutley correct. My question that would still remain though is that if your arrows dont spin, no matter what angle the blades are alligned (X vs +), wouldn't the arrow plane at the angle you allign them? For example: if you were to set tham at a + configuration you are saying that the arrow may plane at a 180 or 90 degree angle right?
So if they are alligned in an X configuration wouldnt they just plane at 45 degree angles? Again assuming that the arrow was going to plane at a + configuration.
It would be like an airplane flighing with a profile like this /. The tendency would be for that plane to drift high left or low right.
