Post by: NWWABOWHNTR on March 08, 2009, 07:24:35 PM: I bought a top of the line apple pro-saw, $169 and if you are doing lotsw of arrows its the only way to fly! I have arrows I make for two different compounds (indoors and 3D/Hunting) traditional for my recurve and then arrows for both of my kids.... :-) Well worth the investment for me. Blitzenberger fletching jig with 1 clamp (either straight/right or left) is only $69, and $29 for the other clamps if you need more than 1.

Post by: Lowedog on March 08, 2009, 07:52:07 PM: I just bought a Weston arrow saw from Bowhunters superstore off ebay for $69. Pretty nice for the $$. I have a few differant fletching jigs. I just bought the Bohning Blazer jig for 2" Blazers. Puts the Blazers on with a 3 degree helix and does a sweet job!

I REALLY LIKE CUSTOM ARROWS!!! :drool:
