I use quite a noticable right offset (with a right helical clamp) on my 2" QS vanes, and have shot these shaftsat 20- 60 yards targetswithout any problems, they work just as good as the right helical 2" blazers.
This sounds really strange to me--as everytime you want to change the distance your vane is, relative to your nock you'll have to work another groove.
The easiest thing to do is to sandwish a piece of 'thin cardboard' on the side of the vane where the kicker is at,and this allows the vane to fit tight in the clamp--no dremmeling or cutting of your clamp.

1/16" offset is recommended by QS.

Bitz...2 degrees

whack said it best, however I fletch mine on a Bitz with a rh helical and a slight offset. They fly great but you can tell they bleed off a lot of energy from spinning so much at longer distances I'm going to switch to the speedhunters and go with a straight clamp and see how they do.

sorry for the crappy paint

when i start to fletch my gold tips, the directions for the QS's said if you wanted to .. you can offset the vanes .. imagine a straight line throught the spine..and each outer corner of the base of the vane comes in contact of that "line" intern giving you your 1/16" offset.

im using a bohning "straight" jig .. and after getting used to the proper amount of glue... they are turning out really well... good enough for a 10 yr archery veteran to pay me to vane his eastons
