well, after a horrible first attempt at fletching where i managed to put the feathers on backwards, i finally figured it out.

the sound has improved and the accuracy has gone way up. i was able to hit a coaster from 75 yards away. before i fixed them, they would swerve or fall short.

I really don't see how or why you could possibly do that. I've done some real incompetant fletching, but I've never done that.

Like Mullet said, if it can be done wrong, someone has done it. More than likely ME.  Justin
