    I've used them in the past. They perform fine. I still prefer regular wraps and vanes because I have more choices. You do have to be careful as mentioned, if you dip too fast you will either end up with bubbles or wrinkles.

    I would agree with other posters in saying that from a performance aspect they work just fine. From a durability aspect they are lacking. I have used them and still have some packs of them that I will use to fletch my practice arrows but I have noticed that the fletches are not applied very robustly and a lot a them have just popped off after hitting a target.

    I have an issue with glue or air bubbles forming under the wrap and them not flying well. So I gave up on them and went to just fletching my own. If I'm worried about having the fletch an arrow Ill bring more arrows or my bitzenburger.

    I am looking into re-fletching some of my worn out arrows with quick-fletch but have read about the durability issues. Is this something that was in the past and has been remedied or is it still the case?

    I never had any durability issues when I used them. They're good for quick and easy. The nicest thing about them was cleaning them off to replace. One swipe with a utility knife and they pull right off.
