Why do specific arrows rise?

<< < (2/2)

AdamW:
There is a very specific method to constructing medieval arrows that Richard Head provides in order that other may duplicate his process.  Many of the steps are on youtube videos as well as instructions that come with arrow kits.

Rotating the arrow won't work as the "cock" feather will slide against the bow pushing shots to the left (right handed archer).  I noticed that one of the fletches was about 5mm longer(taller) than the rest so I trimmed it down but haven't shot it yet.

I will update you all this weekend after I've finished a few more arrows and had a chance to shoot.  Thanks for your help!

  All arrows come off the bow at the same place. I'd say the arrows have about the same bend in them around the same place. Alowing them to come off the bow the same way.
