[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 428038, member: 1"] Whoops, I fixed it so you can start a thread. [B]Fletching problems:[/B] I experienced the same or close to it with my earliest batch of arrows. My latest are real good, though. Couple thoughts, [LIST=1] [*]As soon as you get your arrows check how much "height" there is at the leading edge of each vane. Take a really close cutting scissors and cut off the leading edge on any vanes that may have excess height to the leading edge of the vane, tapering it by cutting close to the shaft. If someone else understands my words, feel welcome to clarify my words with your own. [*]Place a tiny dab of glue at the leading edge of each vane to reinforce the attachment at that crucial spot before you start shooting the new arrows. [*]As soon as you notice the tiniest tear or loosening of a vane's leading edge, do the scissors thing to trim away the tear or loosened edge. [*]You'll need to own a fletching jig that handles the 4 vane configuration. I bought one but haven't used it yet. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
