Drag marks on Arrows

Post by jody5252 »

Noticed 1" or 2" drag/rub marks on the nock end of all my arrows. Never paid much attention to this, because I thought it may be normal. That is until I noticed it on all my arrows. :shock: Started doing this after I got the new limbs installed last summer... Is something not right here, or not to worry. Accuracy is just as good as always, no fliers or erratic arrow flight. Brace height is where it is supposed to be... Thanks, J.

Thanks for the input guys. Just what I wanted to hear! :mrgreen: I am re-fletching arrows. After stripping and cleaning, I noticed the marks... Now, time to go out back and sling some arrows!! :D
