Default jigs

I've been thinking about fletching my own arrows and was wondering if the Arizona E-Z fletch would be a good choice for a jig. I shoot beman ics hunter arrows and would like to put on blazer vanes. Any advice would be appreciated!

I would say get a Bitzinberger. Hands down the best jig on the market. It costs a bit more but is worth every penny.

Absolutely. Well worth the extra money for the versatility. Very repeatable and very easy to use.

I had bad luck with the EZ Fletch. I like a jig that attaches each fletch one at a time so I know the same clamp attached each fletch the same. I have always used the Jo-Jan jigs but I have never heard anything but great things about the Bitz, just never played with one myself.

Another vote for the Bitz, the best jig available.

The bitz is probably the best one you can get. I had used a Jo Jan for a while, but after using a bitz, you wont wanna use anything else. the bitz will be a slower fletching machine than the EZ fletch, but it will do a much better job.
