After getting "shafted :chuckle:" by an Archery shop near by, I decided to take matters into my own hands and learn how to fletch my own arrows. Man was I in for a surprise! This stuff is a piece of cake!!!!
Ended up putting together some sticks even the Nuge would be proud of....
I also decided to try out a 3 degree helical with the vanes. My arrow speed dropped a bit, but I have never shot tighter groups in my life!

Nice job! Careful, it's addicting! I've been making my own (woodies, alum. & carbon) for years. Now I've just started making Traditional bows!

nice lookin arrows! Alright well I have to ask now since you said it was a piece of cake and Ive been contemplating it for a while...what all do I need to get started? Its gettin pretty dam expensive to shoot the top end arrows and I need something else hunting related to keep me busy in the winter :chuckle:
