[QUOTE="Shinneryfarmer, post: 4110023, member: 46291"] Many have theorized that you fletch according to whether you are right or left-handed, some have said depending on if you are running field points or broadheads, I even saw an argument for fletching according to crosswinds. All are good factors to consider, aside from crosswinds, but they are not the reason why arrows spin one way or another. The arrow’s natural spin, in fact, is determined by the way your strings are twisted. As we twist our strings clockwise, this will create a natural left spin of the arrow. Of course, we recommend fletching your arrows with a left helical, as your arrows will then be directed by the vanes/feathers in the natural spin of the arrow. You’re probably wondering, “But what if I don’t want my screw-in points to come loose? What if I can’t get clearance on my bow with a left spin? What if I have to shoot with a right-spinning arrow to match my broadhead blades?” This is not a problem. As vanes have much more influence on the arrow than its natural rotation, you can fletch with a right helical which will cause the arrow to re-direct itself to spin in the opposite direction.
