Fletching vs Broadhead Question

Hey guys,

So I shoot Carbon Express Hot Mayhem arrows with 2" Blazer vanes and pink G5 Montec broadheads. I will be replacing the fletchings for this season as these are already pretty worn & torn up. I've done this plenty of times before but a question came to mind that I never thought about before.. Does the position of the fletchings have to be lined up with the blades of the broadheads? Or does that not matter? Does it affect arrow flight?

Thanks!

It does not matter. The rear of the shaft and the drag produced by the fletchings acts independently of any air hitting the front.

I think the only time its beneficial for how the front is aligned is for clearance on the riser only.
Ah got ya. Thank you!
