Default Fletching Question??

I shoot Gold tip 5575's. I have had no proplem with my WB messing up my fletchings. The only reason I had to refletch was from shooting all the way through targets. However after refletching the arrows, the WB is messing them up pretty quick. Is there one glue that is better than others? Could I be using to much or to little glue?

Thanks For The Help!
Bryan

If you aren't doing it already...put a bead at the front and back of the fletching. Mine did the same thing. Also, did you scotchbrite them before refletching them? Most of the time, from the factory they use an epoxy.

Get rid of the WB and go with a Hostage Pro, no more messed up vanes and still the full capture of the WB. Hey, it's a suggestion.
