    I shot some new arrows I wrapped and fletched myself and they fly really well. First time trying the right helical and I am impressed. I AM SO PUMPED!

    Did you use the AZEZFLETCH?

    I got it and fletched some for the first time a month or so ago. Works well.

    No shooting tonite...

    Yessir I sure did! I love that thing. My wife said I am like a kid with a new toy. I am buying a new dozen of Easton FMJ this week and I am going to wrap and fletch them all.

    Right On! I glued my first set with one 1/4" high....then got the hang of it. I think it would be good to buy 2 so you can get working on one while the other sets up.

    I love it to.

    Thanks bro. I use Nocturnals and they work really well for me. Especially with the Easton FMJ. They fit really tight. I use the green ones too.

    I thought about that very thing. I think I am going to do that. What glue did you use? I bought the Goat Tuff and that stuff works really well.

    Exact same stuff. Worked Flawlessly. Just need to keep the tool clean every once in a while.

    I've been fletching all day. 20 arrows. I usually use goat tuff premium. I gave up on the regular. Today I'm using gorilla super. After a minute I can grab the vane and bend the arrow. Seems pretty good.

    20 arrows. Wow! Post some pics when you have a chance, I had someone recommend that to me too. I am going to experiment with a few glues and see which ones work best. I saw a cool video on Youtube testing different glues.

    Yeah the premium goat tuff worked really well for me too. The original failed me one time. So I upgraded. It's the bottle that failed on the premium. The nozzle broke off rendering the glue worthless without a new bottle. The gorilla was cheaper than a new bottle :-/ plus it has had good reviews in the past. Gotta shoot and see hope the new string gets here soon.

    Don't know how I missed this thread! . . Great thread to see what distance everyone shoots from, and if they practice shooting from the ground/elevated!

    I shot some yesterday!

    Shot good.

    Shot 6 arrows, 6 rounds.

    Flat.

    I started out at 20 yards. . Went to 30 yards, then 40, and 60 yards.
