Dennis, I'll bet you know the answer to this!
Questions about fletching & accuracy.
I heard from a very knowledgeable bowman that on a crossbow, helical fletching will really tighten up groups.
1. Is it true generally that more spin is needed for x-bow bolts than arrows? This does stand to reason.
2. If I cannot do a helical fletch, should I do a 4 degree offset (rather than a 2 degree offset as I would do with arrows)?
Or, should I leave the PSE Tac-10 arrows as is? There are 4 long vanes but no offset and no helical to them.
I have a blitzenbarger, which is supposed to do the flattened "Star Wars X-Wing Fighter" pattern that the Tac-10 and Tac-15 bolts use (if I'm not mistaken). Thinking of using Quik-Spin STs with a 4 degree offset. The accuracy I'm currently getting is definitely nothing spectacular.
