[QUOTE="Buzzard Bait, post: 503349, member: 25989"] Super 91/OkieBowie, I've been following this thread and have what may be a silly question or it might be a question that has no good answer. From your discussion it appears the Tac 15 arrows have multiple spines due to the way they are constructed (tapered thin at each end, thicker in in the middle, i.e. a sort of reverse coke bottle shape). This shape (or taper) evidently makes the spine different (or variable) from front to back. If you look at the end of the arrow you have a circle of 360 degrees. Say 0 degrees is up and the spine of the front section is along this angle. My question is......will the spine of each section of the arrow be located at the same angle along the length of the shaft? I.E. could the front section be at 0 degrees, the thicker middle section be at some other angle, say 60 degrees from the 0 degree spine of the front section and then the rear section be at some other angle, say 130 degrees from the 0 degree spine of the front section? If there is three or four different spines along the length of the shaft that are not in line with each other, could we ever expect to attain the same point of impact with a group (say a dozen) arrows? I may be out in left field with this question!!!!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
