Abstract

A stabilizing vane for use with an archery arrow includes an elongate vane body with an inclined surface attached thereto. The inclined surface is confined substantially within the upper portion of the vane body spaced from the arrow shaft so as to be cooperable with an arrow rest. The inclined surface can be oriented to optimize arrow rotation and centering.
