RE: My first self fletched arrows!
C'mon, Preacher. I guess the Hoyts are kinda sexy.... in a female Klingon sort of way.[8D] Once you get past those ridges and teeth, they're hot!
To answer some questions, I have no idea what degree offset they are. I just bought the right helical set and left the base centered. Any idea what that relates to?
No, I didn't glue any fingers together. Don't ask how many times I glued my fingers to other things, though. (Don't let your minds drift into the gutter on that one.

Hey LC, be prepared tobreak one or two of those fine looking arras. The last two hogs I shot from tree stands both broke my arrows. It sucks but its worth it. I get passthrough shots, the arrow embeds in the ground while the fletched end is still in the hog, it runs off and snap goes the shaft!

RE: My first self fletched arrows!
LC, they look great. Was the glue that you used a liquid or a gel? I've been using gel, but it squishes out the side and I have to clean it up afterwards. It's not a big deal, but I was wondering how it worked for you.
