I have finished re-fletching most of my hunting arrows . . . and they turned out great.

The existing vanes had to be removed from most, because none were my preferred White. However, the rest have one white so I need to line the jig up to that one white to replace the other two.

I would like to know how you line up your jig [aka the distance between the existing vane and the magnet-so the clamp fits properly] to create the proper place to locate the other two vanes. The nocks on these remaining arrows are not Uni Bushing nocks so they cannot be easily turned.

I hope I have worded this query correctly.

If it was me I would replace them all. It is hard enough with a uni-nock to get everything to line up, I cant imagine trying to do it without one

Its hard to get right the first time, so what I'v been doing to get them the same every time now that I have some I like is I loosen the thumb screws on the magnet & place a fletched arrow in the jig. Then I put the clamp over the feather on the arrow in the jig & t puls the magnet into place. f you need to adjust the nock setting you can loosen that thumb screw & turn the knob one way or the other until its not pulling on the vane or feather. Tighten the thumbscrews & your done.
If your arrow already has vanes on it I think Id set the jig like I described first & then refletch the whole arrow.

Thanks for the info . . . I'll give it a try.

Replace them all. It might take a few more mins but it's worth it.
