Re-use vanes
Does anyone re-use their vanes? I am new to fletching my own arrows and I was wondering if you can use them again as long as they're in good shape?

RE: Re-use vanes
I agree, its not worth it. Throw them away and use new ones. I always clean my shafts and lightly swab the new vanes with 91% alcohol, then let air dry.
