    What's the best fletching glue you all use? Have tried a couple different brands (Bohning, etc), and also some instant Gel style crazy glue. Not sure I like any of them better than the next. Couple people here have used the AAE and seem to like it. Just looking for opinions.

    I use Gorilla brand, super glue with 2" Blazers, and a Ripcord drop-away, Haven't had one come off yet. unless I hit it with another arrow.

    Goat Tuff. Sets in seconds, and holds like no other.

    Bohnings Quantum XT. I have yet to find ANYTHING that out performs it. Its rather expensive but if you take care of it a bottle will last a long time.

    Always AAE at the shop and my own. I never use any kind of super glue, you bring you arrows in to be re-fletched, I'd charge you double. I do dot the front of each of my blazers with super glue on my hunting bows, just because I use dare I say it biscuits, and over time they'll get hungry and eat a vane. Fletch tite platinum only with feathers, seems to perform better for lots of people.

    God Bless.
