Damaged fletching.... Which replacement is best? I have several arrows that have damaged fletching from random shooting. Would it be better to go out and buy a fletching jig and all the components or try the shrink wrap type? What are the pro's/con's of each and how much do the shrink wrap type's affect arrow flight compared to the typical jig style fletching. Thanks in advance.
With the correct fletching jig you can put any fletch you want on your arrows and you can replace one bad fletch instead of all three. With the shrink wraps you get zero options.
I agree with Bruce, get yourself setup to fletch your own and you'll be glad you did. It's easy, cheaper and quicker. Plus, as mentioned, you have a billion options when it comes to fletching, feathers, wraps, etc.
i have an arizona e-z fletch jig, its easy and i use wraps, be aware though in using wraps if you lose a fletch generally it will tear the wrap so youll need to replace all the fletch, i just think its cheaper than using the shrink fletch
I chose the NAP Quick fletch route. It was extremely easy and I refletched 6 arrows in about 5 minutes. They were ready to shoot buy the time I put away the pitcher I used to hold the water. I may get a jig sometime in the future, but these are working great for me in the meantime.
