i got a WB on my old bow and my nephew has one on his for 5 years...and its never done that....dont sound to me like the shop thats fletching them knows what they are doing......when i do mine i take off all of the old fletching and glue....take a small piece of scotch brite and scuff up the area that the fletchings are going on...clean it with 91% Alchol....then fletch them up....and you have to put a drop of glue on the front of the vane or its gonna come off....i put one on the front and back..might be a little much but i havent ever had one come off yet

ohh and in order to get fletching clearance i have to come extremly close to the black whiskers.
And i was told by the shop tech that his bow which is the same as mine ended up melt the bristles on his hostage.

Get you one of the Hostage rests. Then you have no fletch contact and your arrow can't get knocked off either. I don't see how the WB sells like it does when you can avoid all the problems and contact but still get all the advantages with the Hostage.

I just put the QAD Pro Rest and like it!
I hear that this rest is not a fast enough drop away.
The rest has no spring adjustment.
A Spot Hogg Infinity from Obsession For $79.00 might be better, but i love this Q A D!
