Super glue gel!!
It's really cheap and works better than anything I've ever used before. Applies easily, sets up quickly, and I got two tubes in a package for $1 at the dollar store. Now I can fletch a dozen arrows(acc 3-60) in less than an hour, and that was before season. I shoot a LOT and I've only had to replace a few fletches from when one arrow actually hits the other's fletching and tears it.
Not even one has come loose!
I suppose I could buy it in bulk for pennies a tube and then give it a name, like
"Captain Backstrap's magic fletching adhesive" and then sell it to unsuspecting archer's for $15 a tube on the premise there's something special about it that makes it great for fletching arrows. I gotta go - just had a great idea!!!!
