Anyone using quickspins out there that can give me any input as to how they fly and how they are fletched, straight, right offset, right helical etc... which works the best?

Can be applied straight, offset right, or right helical. I use a right helical and they do help tighten groups out to 50 yards. They are coming out with a new 3.125 inch for 2006.

Thanks for the response, I am having some arrows made up with the 4 inch with right offset, am also trying some blazers with right helical, will see how they fly!

This could be a dumb question but O'Well, can anyone explain to me what straight, right offset, right helical exactly are. I`m sure there the way the fletchings sit on the arrow right? Maybe some can explain more in depth?
Thanks for Clearing this up for me!

Straight fletching is just that. The feathers or vanes run straight with the arrow shaft. Offset fletching is similiar to straight, but the leading edge of the feather or vane is slightly to the right or left of the shaft centerline. Helical fletching is offset fletching which also puts a twist on the feather or vane. Arrow fletching is very easy to do, and the results depend on the type of fletcher and clamps used.
I just made a dozen arrows with the Quick spin vanes (4") and I noticed a definite improvement in arrow flight and groups. I'm sold on them.

How heavy are the quick spins? I know feathers are pretty light, vanes not as light, but where do the quick spins come in? I bet they are a bit heavy, as they are pretty stiff little boogers.
