I fletched my blazers with a Right Hel. from an Arizona EZ fletch and the fly pretty dang good. I don't imagine you'll have any problems. Also, since the fletches are so small you don't really get the big helical that you would think you would.

YUP!!!

Sweet!! What is your offset? I just started fletching with Blazers this afternoon and it looks like your offset is more than mine. I was wondering if there is a recommended offset distance.

Thanks!

BH, my off set is what ever my Right Helical EZ fletcher comes with, not sure what it is to be honest. but the shortness of the Blazers makes it look like a small amount of 'off set'.



I was wondering if there is a recommended offset distance.


Not sure what you're asking here...if you are asking for the distance from the knock to the Blazers, the Blazer are set as far back as the EZ will allow me to.

Check out my GT with Gateway feathers. Hope this helps, Bo

Sweet again. Handsome arrows Bowtechbo!! Sorry about the lack of clarity on my question about "off set". What I was trying to ask (rather poorly) was what is the distance from the point in the nock where it attaches to the string to where the fletch attaches to the shaft. The pictrues I was referencing in my original question looked like that distance was greater than the arrows I fletch.

The distance from nock to fletch is not all that critical a prameter, only that they are far enough forward that they don't rub on your face when at full draw.

YUP! i used the Carbon EZ Fletcher for mine, put on the longest knocks i could find on my arrows, and set the Gateway as far back on the EZ as it will allow, to set the fletches as far back as possible, and that was my result. you may be able to get them further back with a different JIG, but i'll let some one else chime in on that, since i've never used anything other than the EZ. i'm happy with them. hope this helps.
