FOB's where can I buy them?
« on: June 27, 2012, 07:18:22 PM »
I can't seem to find them except at their website for $30/dz.  Are there other places online or brick and mortar store that sells them?

I only shoot a 2 blade BH so I figured they'd control pretty well.  Want to buy some to try them and maybe keep them if they work.  I have carbon arrows.  Neon Green would be best but, really, at this point, any color will fly just as well as any other

You want these, Ill send them to ya, but I dont think they are the answer......in no application I tried were they noticably better than regular 3inch 3 fletch, so I abandoned the thought. :dunno:

i used FOBs when i started shooting.  i thought they were great  :tup:  then i switched to aluminum and FOBs are a no-go without a lot of monkeying around.  i recently bought some more carbons  :puke: for 3D and will fletch half with feathers, half with FOBs.

If you'd like to try some blazer's I'm in shelton and will give you some. Give them a decent helical and you won't ever switch. FOB's are a pain, the minute you lose one in the brush or rip one off on your truck seat getting out of the rig you'll see why.
