I have some plastifletch vanes and I need to straighten one vane on four of my arrows. How do you all do this. I tried a blow dryer and it didn't work. Maybe I did not hold it over long enough.
Thanks

Just curious, why would you want to straighten your vanes?

AAE's ripple quite a bit.

When they get like that I re-fletch..I've never had good luck with the blowdryer on them..it helps a bit but it's usually not "good enough" for me.

Just one? Same vane on each arrow? Just curious, are you getting some contact with your rest?

Just one vane has a ripple. It was a cable issue, I fixed it. I will probably have to refletch.

Don't refletch! Turn one of your stove burners on high and wait for it to heat up a little. Hold the arrow about 8-12 inches above the burner and slowly spin it. Don't heat it very long because you will melt the vane (maybe 6-10 seconds) The ripple should come right out. Let me know how it works and don't forget to turn the burner off when you are finished!

Hokie3,
I tried out what you said on one arrow and it did not work. It rippled the other fletches. I shot the bow yesterday and they fly just the same, so I will just let them be. Thanks for the help.

Sorry to screw up your other vanes but it has always worked for me. What kind of vanes are they?

plastifletch, thanks for the help.
