Cutting, wrapping, and fletching your own arrows is the only way to go!! Unless of course you just don't have the time, but if you can make time to go out and practice you should be able to take thirty minutes to do a few here and there like I do.....plus if your like most out there that have been shooting for years and plan to for as long as the Lord above will allow, its a big savings in the end no matter which way you look at it. Plus like the Outdoors man said, I feel better knowing I did them myself!!!
