arrow fletching question
i am about to order some black max's for my allegience. i have a ripcord rest and i was wondering if i get blazers on the arrows should they be straight fletch or right or left helical.

RE: arrow fletching question
I prefer right helical, but some say that offset has the same effect. I doubt it makes much difference.

RE: arrow fletching question
I frankly doubt you're going to have enough shaft to work with on the Black Max that it's going to make that much of a difference.
Since I'm pretty much exclusively shooting fallaways these days, I fletch everything I have nowadays with as hard a helical as I can produce and keep both ends of the feather or vane touching the shaft -- including blazers. |
RE: arrow fletching question
It depends somewhat on what rest you are using. If it's a drop-away then go with a helical. Helical will always stabilize an arrow better.
If it's a prong style or shoot-through rest then straight fletch with about a 4 degree offset is what I'd recommend. Never use just a straight fletch for broadheads. The offset will help rotate the arrow although not as well as a helical. |
