NE 1 Clean arrows and Fletchings????
Hey guys... just a stupid question im sure to all the answer is yes..
after shooting outdoors lets say a few arrows hit a lil dirt, or some grass. later on when your done shooting do you go and clean the arrows before shooting again? if so with what? rubbing alcohol? some of mine are filthy.. well not that filthy.. but they could use a cleaning..
im figuring the dirt on the fletchings could be offsetting the true flight of the arrow... thoughts .. and opinions are always appreciated.
Thanx

Soap and water for shafts and vanes. Just a rinse in plain water for feathers then, after they're dry, a steaming over the spout of a bubbling teapot to zip them back into shape.
