Cock feather down and out, where one hen feather runs thru the crease in the shelf.

Out, and I leave a trough between the rest pad and the strike plate for the hen feather.
I am not sure what changed in recurves and longbows to cause guys to alter the cock feather position from where it had been set for so long.

Wheels2 - probably the invention of slow-motion video. With a properly tuned/spined arrow there is really no fletch contact.
