I have Snuffers, 150 grain screw in Woodsman, and 125 gr. Woodsman glued on inserts and I can't make any of them hiss. I've had feathers hiss, even with field points, but none of the above broadheads hiss. Did I just get really lucky or what?

Yeah you got lucky, my dad and I have changed to field point and the arrows are silent.  The second you put Snuffers or Woodsmans on they start to hiss big time.

I shoot 150 grain Woodsman's and they don't hiss. I'm shooting aluminum arrows with three, 5" right wing parabolic feathers with about 11 degrees of helical twist. My bow is 42#.

How could the blade's being aligned with the feathers possibly make a difference in noise if they are in front of the feathers?

The bh is still in front moving the same air as they would be the other way...no?
