Two blade orientation poll.
Ok, how should a two blade arrow head be oriented on an arrow shaft.
And please post comments of your opinion and why.

Re: Two blade orientation poll.
I think they should be horizontal because that flat blade acts like a rudder on the front of a boat.
If there's a cross wind, the first few feet before the arrow starts to rotate it would have less effect on the arrow turning.
Also if you had a bad release in a hunting shot, and you got a little fish tailing, that would help as well.

Re: Two blade orientation poll.
I usually shoot 4 fletch. I don't shoot over 20 yards so cross wind is not a factor from what I can tell. I am not accurate enough anyways.
most do place theirs horizontal for sight picture.

I shoot 3 blade but when I shot 2 blade I placed them horizontal so I wouldn't see them as much.

Re: Two blade orientation poll.
If arrows are fletched at any angle arrows will spin, so wind might effect if positioned any way. My thoughts.

Re: Two blade orientation poll.
In my experience i havent been able to determine that it makes any difference on a properly tuned arrow. I shoot mine horizontal so there not in my sight window.Although I have noticed that a 2 blade will suffer inconsistencies more so on an arrow not properly tuned. Imo
Re: Two blade orientation poll.
Horizontal or close to, for sight picture only, don’t need completely horizontal, just where don’t catch my eye.
Re: Two blade orientation poll.
I orient my heads vertical to feel the head hit my finger and I think it just looks cooler.
