Should I buy a fletching jig?

How often do you guys get your arrows re-fletched?

I'm an avid diy-er and am thinking about buying one of the fletch jigs so that I can fletch my own arrows. Is it worth the $?

 

I fletch my arrows myself with a jig, and love doing it. I like being able to personalize my arrows. However you will probably get a lot of advice to try Quickfletch by NAP. It is a lot quicker if you don't want to take the time to use glue and a jig.

 

What about using fletching tape? It seems easier than using glue. Is it reliable?

 

Is the AAE Fletch III Fletching Jig a good choice? It's the cheapest jig.

 

I haven't used tape, I use glue. I also use a Bitzenburger jig....can't beat it in my opinion.

 

i.bought a jig. i wanted to try it. its very fun, you can make them what you want. you may want 2 give it a whirl. i made this one up yesterday...

 

Here's a pic of the last batch I fletched and a pic of the wrap.

 

looks good man! whered you customize that wrap at? what kind of arrow you shootin?

 

agreed GA, blitzenberger hard to beat in my opinion too!! have fletched my own and for others for a number of years now,gives me something to do on those cold winter nights, lol.

 

I sent what I wanted to onestringer.com and they made it up.

Carbon Express Maxima Hunter KV is my arrow.

 

thanks. i shoot a carbon express maxima hunter 350. i love the maximas

 

Fletch tape works great with feathers. Keeps them on even when I have pulled arrows through a bag target but comes off very easily when I want it to. Feathers and feather fletch are hard to beat.

 

Jo-Jan fletcher is a good quality metal fletcher for those that don't want to spend a lot of money.

 

Like the older Bitzenberger best !!! Will let you do it all !!!

 

It costs me $18 to have my arrows refletched. I have no desire to do it myself. I refletch once a year.
