I know this has probably gone over a million times but i tried a search and came up with nothing. So how do you chose which one to go with. Sorry for such a stupid question.

I had a bunch of left wing feathers so went with left bevel. You just have to match the bevel to your feathers.

Sounds simple... Thank you very much. Kind of figured it was something like that just wanted to make sure.

For the same reason the water in a toilet spins clockwise or counter clockwise depending on the hemisphere you live in. You pick right or left bevel depending on whether you live north or south of the equator.

I wouldn't lie about a thing that's this important.

I don't shoot single bevel broad heads.  But I have also read the bevel should match the feather.

I think,but don't hold me to it,that if you use right wing it tightens the tip or doesn't actually try to loosen it,but I haven't found it to be a problem either way.

OMG  Charlie... I can't believe it.  

Not that you said that, it was great, but the fact is, I have a weird sense of humor, I know it, and I often say things in jest, like that.  Anyway, when I read the title, before I even opened it up, my mind was coming up with a near IDENTICAL story, and I was wondering if I was gonna get in trouble...again...

What Charlie said x 2 !

someone out there tested this recently on carcasses and found that the head still spun with the bevel and wasn't much influenced by the flight.  I would imagine if the heads are sharp it ought not matter much.  Needless to say, my LH Grizzlies are setup with LW feathers.  I didn't do it on purpose actually, just happened to be what I bought.

...

Match the bevel to the feather you have.  The heads not only spin as they go through animals, but I noticed my right bevels pull out of foam targets counter-clockwise.  Pretty cool the way they work.

Charlie is only half right .
It depends on if you are shooting North or South .      
Truthfully , use the one that you can sharpen easier .
The spin of the arrow prity much stops when it enters the animal .
Either one will still make a S shaped cut and break bone better than a double bevel .

For years, about the only single bevels were the original Grizzlies and they were all right bevels.  We shot them with left and right wing feathers without knowing any difference and they worked just fine.  Now that we "know better", I shoot left bevels with my left wing fletch.

Just another little wrinkle.  I find Right bevel heads easier to sharpen too when I do so by hand, as I am right handed.

what Charlie said x3  

Coriolis effect.  Almost caused a war with Australia on an episode of the Simpsons.  Or you can use the old "lefty, loosey; righty, tighty" to figure it out.  

Hey, its gun season here, anything to put a smile on one's face is a good thing!

Rh bevel for quartering toward shots and LH bevel for quartering away... common guys this is textbook stuff here.  

In all honesty I don't think it matters. If I'm not mistaken the resistance a single bevel bh meets as it travels through flesh and bone is what cause it to rotate not the feathers. Matching feather with bevel only helps performance of the single bevel broadhead weather you notice it or not. That being said I use a right wing with right bevel.

Chuck... I just couldn't help myself. I hope the "serious" guys will forgive me.

Graps... which half?

I haven't switched to single bevel yet and am still killing stuff and shooting right through them. I'm just not sure a guys success or failure to kill an animal is dependant on matching bevel to wing.

You sure got that right Ryan!

I hate to break up a good joke, but I'm an engineer and it's in my dna.

Best penetration = matched bevel and fletch.
Second best = any fletch with double bevel.
Worst combination = any single bevel with opposite fletch.

If you aren't gonna do it right, just go back to double bevel heads and do whatever you want for fletch.

I wouldn't even bother to comment if I didn't think we had a responsibility to the animals we intend to kill.
