Anybody using quick fletches for exclusively for practice and hunting? I lose arrows and tear off fletches all the time and then I get them refletched and buy new arrows, so now I have a whole mix match of different fletched and arrow and I alway question how much different each of them is flying. Anybody just buy a bunch of blank shafts and put quick fletches on all of them so your always going to be shooting the same arrow and fletches? I just want thing simple and consistent so I can stop trying to blame my equipment on my bad shooting and get back to focusing on the real problem. Me
I don't use quick fletch, but I fletch my own arrows to make sure all my arrows are set-up as close as possible to being carbon copies of each other.
i was using quick fletch and they are great but at$20 or more a pack of 6 it's a bit pricey. I have mine done with a 7" wrap and blazers and it costs around $36 a dozen so about $3. It cost about the same as the quick flecth but then I can choose my wrap color and balzer
I had a dozen arrows fletched by a well known national sporting goods store and had to have 10 of them re-done the next week because the fletching were flying off Not ready to go the "make my own" route yet. I just used these quick fletches for the first time last night and really liked how easy they were. I havent shot them yet but was wondering if I would have an issue with them and my whisker biscuit? Don't know how tough they are. I practice a lot.
Started using QuickFletch about 6 months ago. They work great. They are a little pricey, but it is worth it for me.
Yes, QuickFletches are a little more pricey, but you also don't have to buy other supplies. Such as, glue and a jig. Best of all, you can do a dz arrows in a fraction of the time. The longest part of the process is boiling the water.
They do it all at the pro shop for me. I will never go to a bass pro or cabelas for my arrows or bow. I agree Dan I pay almost the same price at the end but I like the 7" wrap and to pick my colors other wise I would use the quick fletch only. I am using a pink wrap with 1 white and 2 pink blazers so I can find them easier if I have a pass threw or a miss. Noting in my woods is pink no not even my drawers lmao
Used them for 2 years now and love them. Can get a good deal on them here: http://www.bowhunterssupplystore.com/nap-quikspin-twister-vanes.html
I will only use them!! I've fletched my arrows the old way and it was fun but very time consuming. I switched to the quick fletches when bowhunting.com had the special on them and never looked back. 10-15 minutes and dozen arrows are done. Complete time saver when you build your own arrows. And they work great
Thats all I use now. I am down to six arrows now due to shooting groups. All six now have QF quick spins on them. I had the twisters and liked them. Tried the quick spins and they work even better for me anyways. As for toughness, This morning I was tuning my bow at 75yd (added a pin for it so I had to tune that pin) and hit the top of my hurricane bag target and blew right trough it. No fletching damage at all. As for accuracy, couldn't ask for more from them. Before I fletched them with the QF's, it was all I could do to hit an 8" circle at 60yd. Today I was hiting the vitals with every shot at 75yd after I tuned it of course. I have come to the conclusion it was the arrows and not me. Before with the factory iinstalled vanes, my arrow flight was a little more sparatic. Should be fine through a WB. One more thing. I am shooting what was GT Warrior 400 arrows I bought for $50 a dozen. Not the best shafts in world at all but, with the NAP QF Quick Spins they are now really accurate. I would love to see what they would do on some higher end arrow shafts. Thats for next season I guess. To close to opening day to be changing things up now. One thing to remember when installing them though, place them slowly into the boiling water so that while it is shrinking down it pushes the water out. I had a problem with that on the first go around and had one come off.
I have been using them for 3 years and love them, I've tried a couple different brands and the NAPs are my favorites. The other brand had durability issues but the NAPs are very durable. I would say more durable than any fletching I did myself or had someone else do.
My son and I "Hoyt 16" aka "Sweet 16" switched over ealier this year to the quik spins and we will never go back. Increased accuracy is the biggest thing we noticed as well as how quick and easy all of this was to do. I have had many bad experiences with shops making mine up and then they don't last or they fall off. I'll use these as long as I am able to shoot. Can they make these any better...? I don't think so. They are awesome...SOLD.. Ttraveler
i'm looking to fletch my own. i like doing stuff myself. i dont really trust products that you put into hot water. if you want it done right do it yourself. i really dont care if it takes longer to refletch my arrows with glue, rather then throw it into hot water. my time i free, take your time and do it right. my .02 cents.
