Too cold for fleching
 
Last day of deer season it was near 0 degrease and I laid my bow down on the ground and 2 arrows had broken fleching from the cold. I thought they were bohning fleching but now I'm not sure. Anyone ever had this happen to them in cold wheather? I touched the fleching and it just broke. I did check and the fleching marked bohing did not break.

Switch to feathers; you will not have that problem. Also, your vane will not be as supple at 0 degrees as it would be at 50 degrees. JMO :)

This post prompted me to go get my bow out of my truck where I left it late last night after league night. The temp out there right now is -32F. The bohning veins on my arrows were still flexible. However, LOL, the one I checked lost it's glue bond and came off [X(] I'm not going to shoot at that cold anyway so I'm not too worried. It did give me a good idea for removing fletchings from my arrows though :D
