Just an opinion. keep in mind that archery does not have to be scientific. Different shooters hold the bow a different way and torque has a big play in arrow flight along with the way you release the arrow. Thats why I'm a firm believer that a properly tuned bow thru paper is a must. the sooner the arrow is stabilized immediately off the bow in flight the less work you vanes or fletching has to work to get that arrow stabil. If that makes any sense.

I am not challenging a person's preference, I am challenging the claims and beliefs that the "Quikspin" vane is some type of magical cure, or better yet; some type of ingenious device that will put any broadhead mounted shaft on the mark or enable groups in a way that no other fletching can do.
However, I will agree with something you said. Forgiveness is a good thing, But I am curious; just what type of mistake or mistakes does a Quikspin vane forgive, and in what manner? I know we (archers) tend to loosely use the word, i.e. forgiveness, but we honestly know that a shooting error remains an error, and that bad shooting form and a poorly tuned setup is usually not compensated for by any piece of gear.
