How does cresting affect spine?
« on: January 06, 2017, 08:39:00 AM »
Hi all,

Just wondering if you need to move to a different spine arrow due to the weight of crown paint, sealer etc. Really like the looks of crested arrows, might be giving it a try!

If you are so close to spine limits that this would be a major factor, you probably have not made the best choice for spine to begin with.

Cresting isn't going to change spine. Not an issue!

Anything that adds weight is going to affect balance and spine.  However, the effect will likely be so small that it would be immeasurable.
