I'm shooting the NAP QT2000 dropaway on my Hoyt Razortec. It doesn't seem to matter whether I shoot cock vane up or down since the rest is out of the way when the fletching passes through. I chose the cock vane down though just for the consistency of my routine.

I have a Drop Zone on my BowTech Extreme VFT. If the cock feather is straight up or straight down I have clearance issues with the cables. I resolved the problem just by rotating the nock to achieve clearance. I keep the cock vane up (angled to the right), but I suppose I really should have it pointing straight out to the left like I did with my old flipper rest.

I shoot cock nearly up. The cables are pretty close to the string on the bowtechs, so I just turn the vanes as nreal straight up as I can without contact with the cables and that has worked well for me.

"I use a GKF Mirage and shoot cock feather down. Zero fletching contact and works great."
I have a different gkf and had the vane up for certain reasons that no longer exist. I'd forgoten things had changed so I tried it vane down, I feel much better.Thanks for the notion!
