So I read the thread here about six fletch benefits and thought I’d give it a try. I am working with a right helical ez-fletch so I am limited to right helical only. My setup is a Switchback XT 71#, 28.5” draw. Arrow is a 5mm axis 340 at 27.5” with 50 gr inserts and 100gr heads. Currently shooting NAP Hellrazors. Wanting to switch from the factory blazer vane 3 fletch to a 6 fletch 1.5” quickspins for better stabilization and less wind drift. Completed arrow with blazers is 442 gr and with quickspins is 443 gr on my reloading scale. Speed is 266fps.
I am curious if anyone else has experienced this:
With a factory straight fletched 3 blazer vanes on my arrows and with the Broadhead blades aligned with the fletching, my arrows hit within 1” of my field points at 40yds. With the 1.5” quickspin 6 fletched, the same broadhead hits high and right 6” consistently. I have shot both options no less than 20 times each. I expected the higher rotation rate of the quick spins to stabilize the broadhead as good or better than the 3 fletch.
any ideas to the issue? I was thinking the tune may be different with the 6 fletch but it was perfect bullet holes with shafts and Factory fletched arrows soI am assuming the bow is in the. The bow did get a new string about 100 shots ago. Could the higher rotation rate be causing the arrow to climb high and right?
