Default Quick Spins...worth it??

I recieved an arrow fletcher for x-mas this year, and started looking at fletching. I'm looking at purchasing the quick spins...but are they actually worth it? I see they advertise that a person will shoot tighter groups and be more accurate. Has anybody seen their shooting improve by using these? Anything bad about them?

I tried them they didn't seem to hold up very good also they seemed noisy so I tried blazers and been very happy with them but thats just me other members will tell you they like quickspins only you can decide which you prefer hope this helps.

I like the blazers too, besides, quick spins slow down your arrow too much.

I use them and they are not durable at all. I don't think they are worth the extra money. I haven't noticed an increase in accuracy, they are very expensive and do not hold up at all.

Feathers. The bomb. Get 'em and don't look back.

I've tried many different fletchings including the QS's. I found that they do help some with flight but they are fragile and not worth the money in my opinion.

I have found that the Bohning Blazers are a MUCH better choice!

I always have to laugh when I see claims of some gizmo making arrows more accurate. The only thing that is going to help with accuracy is having very consistent shooting form and well tuned equipment. Quickspins CAN help in some circumstances, but only if you have good form in the first place.

I tried QuickSpins, I thought they were really slow also. I have been using Blazers also, no problems with them.
