RE: for those of you who use.......
I was once told by a "pro" (he had the certificates to prove it) that it was impossible to put a 5" helical feather on a carbon arrow. Being the novice at the time, I didn't know that so I showed him my Beemans with 5" helical feathers on them. Glad he told me it couldn't be done, otherwise I might have kept on.....lol.
It can be tricky, but it can be done. I used a Bitzenberger to do mine. Today I recieved my first BPE Pro fletcher, which looks to be much more adjustable than the Bitz. It will take a little tinkering, and a good fletching jig, but you can do it.
I've shot 4" feathers, but did a 4-fletch when I did, so I am no help there--sorry.
