Yes. 100% for consistency. Check out my video where I did the full build for the arrows being wrapped in this one. ua-cam.com/video/lyWhVvxx_wU/v-deo.html - If you don't want to watch the full thing (I get it, I'm long winded...) start at about 5:45 mark. After determining the spine, I line the wrap up with that mark, then put my top fletch over the seam of the wrap. This does a few things. 1. it helps seal the wrap from unraveling - this has not been a problem with arrowrap.com wraps, but I'm into over-building. 2. if my nocks rotate over time or if the indexing mark I make on the arrows wears off over time, I have the seam of the wrap as a permanent spine alignment mark, I can readjust my nocks to later. and 3. The least important reason of all is the lettering on my wraps is consistent from arrow to arrow and if I have set up my fletching jig correctly, the fletches don't cover the lettering and they all look exactly the same. This last one is mainly aesthetics but I know that all of my arrows are spine aligned exactly the same and if one looks off then I know something got knocked out of whack on my fletching jig. It's all very specific and likely overkill, but if I ever have one arrow that just refuses to group with the others, I can almost always find something squirrelly about that arrow that doesn't match the others just from looking at it. Thanks for the question and the support!
Are you holding the nock in certain position for EVERY arrow for consistency? or does that matter? maybe you covered that in other video ...
