I just looked at the Shrink Fletch System w/2'' Blazers.

Does anyone know anything about these Shrink Tubes or have experience ?

They work ok in an emergency, you're in camp anddesperately need an arrow refletched. Other than that I perfer 2" blazers, some fletching glue (or loctite gel), and a fletchng jig.

Yea, I figured that the glaze on the carbon arrow would make this system prone to slipping off. I was going to scuff the arrow shaft before I dipped the arrow into the 180degree water.

However, Im skeptical about it. So, Im going to stick with arrow wraps and switching to those 2'' blazers.

I NEED ARROW wraps, what company makes the best ones ?

Bohning wraps are good. There's a guy here ("Onestringer" I beleive) that will make some for you. Lately I've been going to Wal-marts automotive section and buying white reflective tape, cutting it down to 3" strips X 1" wide for carbon arrows. Reflects a flashlight at night very well, and it's cheap, you can get a roll for about 2 bucks and do about 10 arrows.
