any reason why you have the fletching so far forward?

The further forward they are the less effect they have at stabilizing. I wonder how far forward you need to go to where that starts to matter.

Jimbob:

I also try to get the fletch just far enough forward to not contact my face. With EZ fletch RT helical with blazers -- I don't have any problems, but I checked and my arrows twist to the LT coming off the bow, so I tried the EZ fletch LT helical with AAE stealth max vanes and they were contacting my chin below my lip.

So I swapped to my Bitz in 90 degree 4 fletch LT helical AAE SM and had to move them forward another 1/2" to ensure clearance whether I'm clean shaven, facial hair or a mask on. So far the accuracy to 40 yards has been fantastic
