    Has anybody ever used the NAP Quick Fletch? I was thinking using them but don't know of anyone who has. Let me know what you think.

    yes, i have used them before. They work fantastic, the only downside is that I was using a whisker biscuit rest at the time and the fletchinchs would rip off after 30 or so shots, but now i have the Apache drop-away and they work excellent! It all depends on your rest if you have a drop away rest then definetly try the quickfletch, but if you have anything like a whisker biscuit do not use the quickfletch because they will rip off and it will become a waste of money.

    I have been using them for about three years and love them. There maybe something to the Whisker Biscuit thing though cause my son-in-law uses a WB and he too has problems with the vanes coming off.

    I've been using them for a few years, I'll never fletch another arrow the traditional way again.

    My local archery shop won't stock them. The owner doesn't think they are good.

    I'm going to order them, cause I'm tired of the fletchings I have done there falling off after a few weeks.

    I've been using them the past 3 years and as I've said before - I'll probably never fletch another arrow with a jig and glue ever again. Quikfletch is the way to go. I can fletch up a dozen arrows in minutes, and be shooting immediately after they're put on.

    Personally I've never had any durability issues with either the tubing or the fletchings and they fly great.

    Once you switch to Quikfletch you'll see the light and wonder why you didn't switch sooner. :tu:

    I have been using the Quickspin but switched to the twister this year. Getting better groups.

    I haven't used them nore have I had to yet. Haven't torn any fletchings until recently and it is getting close to time to wrap things up for the season opener with my equipment. I plan on NAP Quick Fletching all mine and my wifes arrows. I will probably go ahead and get the quickfletch and Broadheads today when I go get my new string installed today.

    I've been using them the last 2 years and really like them. I use the Quik Spins. Good flight, easy to install, and the BH.com ones look sharp too. :tu:

    As far as durability I have found they are the same as regular fletched arrows. If an arrow hits a soft spot on a target the fletching will come off, but no more easily than any other fletching I've used.

    I tried both the quickspins and the twisters. They both did ok with field points but when it came to broadheads, it was a different story. With the twisters I never knew where the broadheads would hit. With the quickspins, all my BH flew 4in right and 4in low compared to my field points. I'll throw something extra into the mix. Bohning is now making the shrink fletch with blazer vanes. I just bought some of those and will be trying them out when the need arises.

    I haven't had the need to use any yet. I have been looking at some for some arrows I have laying around.
    My only concern is the weight... 18 oz of vanes compared to 30 oz of quickfletch.
