How long do arrows need to dry?

Do arrow wraps affect FOC?
You can also affect FOC by adding or reducing weight on the nock end. Although nocks, arrow wraps, and vane sizes and materials might seem to add minuscule weight, they affect FOC as much as the components in the arrow’s front half. That can make arrows nosedive at longer distances or difficult to paper tune.
Should I wrap my arrows?
The wrap and printing can actually make life easier for archers as it can make the arrows easier to spot through a scope, and brightly wrapped arrows are much easier to find in the green. So there are far more pros to having arrow wraps than cons.

What should my arrow FOC be?
FOC stands for Front of Center balance point. This measurement results from the relative weights of the components used in the arrow: shaft, insert, point, fletching and nock. A properly balanced arrow measurements of 7 to 15%.

No issues with overlap or helical overlapping the seam. If I order them again, I’ll look for the 1″ / small carbon wraps, but each one of my cut wraps only weighs 5-6 grains as is so not super worried about it.
