single bevel
« on: August 15, 2016, 04:47:00 PM »
Bought a dozen arrows at a yard sale real cheap only because they had what looks like brand new single bevel broadheads. If I am holding the arrow pointed away from me the bevel on the left side is facing up, are they left bevel or right?

I read your link to say they are left bevel.

Ok I was wrong, the bevel is facing up on the right side. So these are right bevel. So that means that I should use a right helical fletch to keep everything working correct. Would it be ok to use a straight fletch? All I have are straight or left helical.

Straight will work. Best if you use right wing feathers because the curvature of the feather itself will give it a little clockwise spin. Left wing feathers are counterproductive, but they'll shoot.

If the bevel is on the left side as you look down the arrow then it is left bevel.

If you hold it in the palm of your hand with the point away from you and the grind is up on the right side then it is right bevel.

I've been using them for 8 years and had thought it was a simple thing but now I don't know which end goes on the string!
