bare-shafts perfect: fletched shafts nock high?

[T.L]

Hello all,

 I am going through the tuning process and this came up.

Bare-shafts fly great out to fifteen yards (maximum range in the basement). They hit where I aim with the nock pointing almost straight back at me, albeit very slightly high.

 A fletched shaft cut to the same length with the same weight head kicks and shows nock high at 15 yards. I shot through paper and it is nock high/very slightly left.

 So, could this be a fletching contact issue? I am using right-wing parabolics in the standard cock-feather out configuration. I just can't figure out why the bare-shafts consistently shoot so well and the fletched shafts not so well.

 Any opinions would be appreciated.

thanks,
   Tom.

Turn it Cock feather IN and See what Happens.

Like said try cock feather in,you might try raising your nock height alittle.

Might also try turning your knock a little.

Yes,you need to turn the nock untill the fletchings clear the riser.Then try again at 20yards.

Just raise the nock point a smidge.  Odds are you are bouncing the fletched shaft off the shelf just a bit.

It sounds like a contact issue.  Easy just raise the nock point an 1/8" and shoot it.
Its always easier to start nocked too high and then come down when tuning a new arrow.
