Default wraps helping arrow flight?

So I threw my new wraps on my arrows the other day and took them out shooting. To my surprise, my arrows seemed to fly a lot more true. I was shooting patterns like I never had before. It was great. The only thing I had changed was that I put wraps on my arrows. I am thinking they may have added weight to the back side of my arrow. This could have given my blazers more control over the arrow flight. I don't know if anyone else has experienced this......but it was significantly different than usual, in a good way.

Actually, adding weight to the back of the shaft gives the Blazers less control over the arrow by decreasing the FOC. What it does do though is make the shaft react a bit stiffer so if you were slightly low in spine you upped it a bit and gained some stability.

Good thing I read this before typing. I would have said the same thing.
