    I was looking at my arrows yesterday, and yes... I need to stop shooting at crappy bails.
    The feathers are all eaten up, and I only have 4 (out of 6) left. lol

    So, I thought about it, and convinced myself that I would not get these re-fletched, but instead, see what the hype with the FOB's is all about...

    I do have some questions though... Hopefully you guys can help me out...

    Can I just strip my shafts with a razor blade?
    Is there anything else I should do other than strip the old off? Clean the shaft with something? IDK. Never got into the arrow building thing...

    I will be ordering new arrows soon, given that the 6 odd (****'s brand Easton's) that I have do not fly right... (Still not sure about these...)

    Anyone have any advice? Thanks...

    Yes you can strip the feathers off with a plain razor blade. Don't worry about cleaning the shaft if you get them re-fletched who ever re-fletches them will clean them.
