Question about drop away rest and fletchings??

[ishot3bucks]

I just bought my first drop away rest (ripcord) and was wondering if I should align my fletchings so they shoot consistently?? I had to in the past so the fletchings did not touch the rest...but is it something I should do again??? If so, which is the best way??

It depends on the height or your riser. If you have a low cut riser you shouldn't have to worrry at all. That being said I always do my odd vane up just to make sure I get max clearance and it's always the same when I clip it on.

Most dropaways will recommend cock fletch up.

You dont have to according to many but Ive had a few sitiuations when my fletches hit, since I switched to blazers havent had problems with contact. But out of habit I still shoot odd up

Test different setups, I personally shoot with cock feather to the left. I use a drop zone.

How should I align my FOB's;)

Thats how I had to shot my Drop zone when I shot blazers. Now that I shot FOBS it doesnt matter. Mostly it depends on how high of a profile the vane has, how high the rest is up from the shelf and rest timing.
