What is the best orientation for nocks when shooting for fletch? Or does it matter? Thought it might for feather clearance. Just thot I'd ask. Thanks in advance.

I dont shoot four fletch but I think if you position it vertical to the center of the fletchings it would be good  :|: this way they will strike the plate evenly.IMO

difference in the world, but the Marines don't have that problem.

kill shot

90 deg. to the widest span between the fletching. The fletcher will determin that. My jo-jan seems good when fletching 4 fletch. Just my 2 cents. My wife says I have no cents. Does this make cents?

Some bows seem to "like" cock-feather IN; others cock-feather out; and still others, cock-feather straight up.

I've experimented with all 3 and with my set-up: I get the best results with the cock-feather up at 12 o'clock position.

I've never had a problems with shooting cock feather out. All the spacing between my three, 5" parabolic feathers is 120 degrees.

For 90 degree four fletch, I position my feathers so when your looking at the nocked arrow from the rear, the fletching form an "X".

Me too Smallwood. I get great arrow flight and the other thing is you don't have to worry about how you nock the arrow.
