Fletching jig?

Pat B:
Like I asked above...are you putting the stiff side of the arrow against the bow? If not try shooting some of the bad shooting arrows with the cock feather in.

I will try shooting some from the cock feather.... yeah I believe I tried to put the stiff side against the bow.... I have a kind hard time finding the stiff side, I don't have a spine tester so its all by feel,....

TimBo:
You could always make sort of a partial spine tester - just suspend the arrow shaft between two points like the backs of chairs, hang some sort of weight from the center, and observe where you get the most movement/sag.  I wouldn't use more than two pounds for the weight though!

gutpile:
Fox I may be seeing wrong but looking at your nock it appears there is no way to get a clean arrow pass the way the fletching is orientated... Most my bows have a shelf and my main concern is having a clean shaft pass top of shelf..whether cock feather is in or out it doesn't matter but you don't want a feather pointing straight down to hit hand or shelf.. your going to get flex off arrow at drop of string still.. a buddy came to my house saying his arrows were everywhere.. he nocked one up and I said whooa.. buddy .. flip the arrow over your shooting it upside down.. 3 seconds and his problem was fixed...gut

Fox:
gut ... I think im pickin up what your puttin down.....any chance you could post a pic so I understand completely ?
