Offset feathers...
« on: March 31, 2008, 09:51:00 PM »
Okay, someone please set my mind at ease. Currently, my helical jig isn't in my own position, and all I have is a straight/offset.
 
Now, the turkey season is coming fast and I need to know: do you think I can get enough stabilization with 4, 4" offset feathers to confidently hunt with them. Anyone else hunt a similar fletch setup???

Really freaking out over this more than I think I should...

My 4-fletched 4" with a slight offset fly fine. 160 gr. Snuffer on a 45-60 Carbon Rebel out of a 43# Kanati. Hope this helps.  bretto

If your set up is tuned, without a doubt.

Chris, offset is all I have used on my arrows. I have had good flight so far.
Gonna make it here this year?
