One small.....wee little problem we need to clear up though........THEY'RE ON THE WRONG BOW!!

MD,
I just bought a Blitzenburger jig. It makes it easy.
Mobow,
Riiiight. They're not on the wrong bow,... they're on MY bow!

TFOX,
I fletched one other arrow with feathers and had time to test shoot it just before it started raining. I just slapped on one of my pre-season Montecs. Jeez, what a difference!!! Dead accurate out to 40 yards! I don't know if I'll use these up above to hunt with yet. I will try them tomorrow and see how they do. Thanks for the input.

Remember that feathers will really need a helical clamp for the best results and I like right wing.Make sure the feathers and the clamp are both the same helical.
I also use the Platinum glue and it is a great glue,especially with feathers but does require a small amount of drying time.5-10 minutes per.
