I would say being over spined is more likely to cause the arrow to connect with the shelf. Shooting 4 fletch has more to do with added guidance than not worrying about nock placement. Also trad guys do shoot vanes. Fred Eichler carries a couple arrows with vanes for inclement weather. I believe Roger Rothaar shot 4 vanes on his arrows.

Yup, I'm thinking maybe a little stiff, and maybe my nock is a little high. Been wondering about that.
Got an arrow put together before work: it's an inch longer, rather than the 1/2" I thought. Should put me right in the dynamic spine area that was kinda fuzzy with the test arrow I had around that spine, but that arrow weighed in a good bit heavier, and never shot real well.
Hopefully will see it fly tomorrow.

I've been shooting cock feather in now for a few years. What I found is it gives me a soils second anchor point, the top feather tops the tip of my nose. I get the exact draw and with the 2 anchors, split finger, top finger inn the corner of the mouth and top feather to the tip of the nose. This has help my consisance considerable.
