Opensky, I found that if I spin it with slight pressure I get my best result.When I did my old magnus stinger 2 blades, this was not such a issue.I use bohning insert iron as it has a 24 hour cure and holds up well.(personal preference).(72 hr full cure).I too had the wobble effect at first.I figured out it was a release issue.I found that if I pull on the string of the first crease of my second finger.Then put the string in the first crease of third finger and the first finger between the tip and first crease.I pull to anchor release from the corner of mouth and follow through by touching my ear.This give’s me a clean release.The beauty of building your own arrows and not buying them off the shelf is you can build them to your own taste and it is much more satisfying.There will be trials and frustration;lord knows I have had my share but is all in the learning experience.Find out what works best for you,tweak things and find success!
Here’s my final end product.2 12″x 4 straight fletch;slight offset.Had too build out the shelf plate when I switched to a smaller feather.I have finally divorced my magnus stinger 2 blades and beer can arrows(said goodbye too aluminum inserts as well).I must confess though, I did take some of the old dogs to the pope and young trad shoot in brownsville.(broadhead 3d shoot).Shot the tuffheads only at targets that if I missed could easily recover my arrows.Thanks to all for showing me the light! THESE ARROWS ROCK!
Shot 20 and 25 yrd. Fishtail too the right 10 yrds then too the left. Never had luck with the 10 yrd thing. Heres my first shot at 25 yrds after adding 25 grs too point weight. Still too stiff.
