What fletching to use?
 

I need some help picking out hwo to fletch my Carbon Express arrows. I shoot thru a whisker biscut and I am in the 300 fps range. I use 100 grain broadheads with 62lbs pull. I have used blazers until now but they seem to fall off so easily and was wondering if there is a more accurate and better solution to shoot with.

P,

I am shooting a WB and am using blazers, as long as they're glued straight I think you shouldn't have problems with them coming off.
Even offset shouldn't be causing problems.
I have a set of 6 arrows that have a 2" vane, 3/4" high and they never had to be replaced ( I'm talking more than 500 shots fired )
Just make sure they're shorter and stiffer for your WB.
You could try and read how to fletch the blazers on the Bohning website, that helped me.....

so you dont use a helical or anything? Just straight 2'' blazer vanes??

feathers i have blazers on two of my arrows and they fly fine but i shoot another 5 yrds dead on with feathers. they glide right out of the WB rest and you can rip them up to almost nothing and they still fly straight. get gateway or bohning feathers though dont go cheap.

I use 2 inch blazers with a 4 degree offset. No problems. I will give some informaiton that Tim of Tim's Goat Tuff told me. He said that he recommends using the HIgh Performance Goat Tuff on blazers, and to clean the shafts before fletching with a 50-50 mixture of simple green and water. The simple green is found at most shopping centers. I got mine at walmart. Just spray on the mixture let set for about 10 seconds then wipe with a clean paper towel. Then fletch away. This came straight from the man who has his name on goat tuff. Hope this helps.
