I guess what would the difference be if a guy was shooting the same length arrow and a 27" draw? Or is I went to a 300 spined arrow two inches longer?

I will play about with arrows and length if need be to get the perfect deflection for my bow.

Thanks,

Bump

Do you mean 3 degree helical? Usually that's how it's measured, and likely it is offset, no? If you fletch helical is it not a set rate of twist in the jig?

Must have got some bad glue. I have fletched 5" feathers on my trad bow arrows using a helical clamp and have had zero fall off.

That's cool! I have only ever fletched blazers with a 2 degree straight offset.
