Just wondering if any,or how many, of you guys use a straight offset fletch on your arrows? Does it offer any advantages over a full helical?
Rob
Straight or straight offset gives you a little more arrow speed. Fine for shooting targets and foam, but not so great at stabilizing an arrow with a broadhead.
i use a right wing fletch on my jig manly do to with carbons the insert threads righty tighty factor and have never used a straight fletch except befor i saw the light and others where making my arrows for me
I like 4ยจ feathers (LW) helical
Straight with slight offset for me with 5 1/2 inch shield cut for me.I think straight fletch is quieter than helical.Just my opinion
I fletch with a bitz and it is set for the hardest helical I can get(LW). Really helps stabilise broadheads and everything else. No advantage to straight off-set that I anyone could convince me of! Shawn
I also use a Bitz (4) and 5" Parabolic cut feathers LW moderate helical and arrows stabilise
great.........mooseran
I use 2 - bitz.. left helical on everything
Left Wing Shield 4" Helical with my trusty Bitz and Saunders NPV Adhesive!!
I have a 50+ year old Blitzenburger and I fletch everything with all the helical I can.
