I was shooting some arrows in my back yard when my son brought his bow out. For some reason his arrows spiral wildly if he tries shooting at anything over 30 yards. It has never done this before. It's a cheaper Diamond bow with a QAD drop away rest, shooting Scheels branded Victory 350 spine arrows.

Probably the fletchings stabilizing the arrow. If it's a kids bow I wouldn't worry. If he's older it might be time to make sure the arrows are correctly spined and the bow is tuned

Probably timing off on the qad rest. Fletching is hitting the prong.


The arrows can't really be stable and then start spiraling unless they don't have Fletching.


If not fletching contact, it's just that out of tune.
