Default Staggered Fletching

Saw this on a Bowtech sponsored show last night on MOR. Host said he staggers the fletching on his arrows - meaning all of the vanes are at slightly different lengths away from the end of the arrow - in order to better balance broadheads in flight and to help arrows fly more truely in western crosswinds during long range shots. Anyone do this? Interesting. Had never seen it before.

I bet that person would have a hard time proving that. But you know, Bowtechs are gods weapons.[:'(]

AR 34. Was the first time I saw the Bowtech show. I've started taping all the deer and bow-related shows on the DVR now that hunting season is approaching. I can get through half a dozen of them in 15-30 minutes. Sponsors, cover your ears. I do so by fast forwarding through everything but the hunt scenes and even then, I usually zoom through much of those until it looks like there's some action.

I know Rob/PA does this. He'll have to explain the peculiars, though.
