I shot the arrow I fletched - It shot fine with quite a bit of helical to it - I dont see the problem everyone was warning me about.....

I shot it at 40 yards and it was only 1/2"-1" average drop below my offset 4" vane feathers.

I went ahead and did the rest of the new dozen goldtip XT shafts...... look great witth 5" white vanes ! I cant wait to shoot this weekend. The only thing I am wondring about is the drop from 40 to 50 yards. At the moment I have 20,30,40,50, and 60 yard pins but Ill most likely see a large drop now at 60.... but I dont practice anymore at 60 and Id never shoot at game that far so Ill remove that pin. But given I have a larger, heavier set of vanes with more drag - I am sure the drop will be a lot differant than my current pin setup (which by the way is off anyway because I turned my limbs down a complete turn due to tendon problems) so I was shootin a lil low at 40 anyway but have not shot 50, or 60 since I changed.............

anyway - thanks for the input guys. Ill post a pic tonight of the fletching so you can see just how much helical I am reffering too..........
