Refletching Issues+ arrow problem

[Coca Cola]

Lately I have been trying to refletch my arrows. I have a bitzenburger ez fletch or whatever its called. Its all metal. Anyway I am having trouble getting my fletching to be even. They usually arent even 120 degrees evenly around the arrow. One I was mildly satisfied with I shot and it doesnt look right during flight. Also I am getting frusterated because it is REALLY hard to get the fletching off in the first place. So what is the easiest way to remove fletching? and to get my fletching not to be total crap. I am trying to fletch feathers but if my razorsharks dont work out then I might go to blazers and shoot Wasp bullets.


My arrows are 45/60 terminator hunter selects.
Now onto my arrow problem. Last week my Razorsharks were hitting pretty close to my field points. Close enough for me to be happy. Well this week I cranked my bow up some its probably around 67#'s and my arrows are 27" ( i will check this later because I have to go soon) and my draw length is 27.5 I think ( dont know how to measure it ). Now my razorsharks are hitting the area of a plate 25 yards . I thought 45/60's were still werent underspined if they were 27"? Are they?

Lets start with the big issue which came about when you increased the weight on the bow.
The arrows may be within the spine range but all that means is that they can be tuned with range of weight that covers the spread.
When you increase/decrease the bow weight you still have to tune the arrow to that weight.
When you increased you should have seen the arrow striking further right or even spraying the target area.
(depending on the amount of increase)
Broadheads will pick up tune problems faster than field points and that is why you must always finish tuning with broadheads.....to fine tune.
At 67# @ 27" you are under spined with the 40/60 shafts.

My suggestion would be to back that bow down to 62# (60 would be better) and go with it till season is over.
Keep in mind that bow weight has nothing to do with killing......it's all about shot placement


Now....on to the jig....
I don't like the Blitz jig....never have
Not saying that it's not a good jig.....it's just not an easy jig IMO
I'd suggest the Graying jig for around $34.

But....since you are trying to use this one....
Make sure that the clamp that holds the rear of the feather is center of the shaft.
You can do this visually by looking down on the clamp while it is empty and mounted and be pretty darn close.
Before you glue the feather , put it in the clamp and set the clamp against the shaft to see that it is making good contact on the rear and front of the feather.
You may find that leaving the feather slightly extended past the mouth of the clamp will make a better fit more times than not.

When you fit the dry feather against the shaft,do it gently and when you are satisfied with the fit , apply the glue and firmly (but not forcefully) apply the feather with the clamp.
I suggest super glue gel as it does not allow the feather to move much after it makes contact.
Super glue also helps beat the normally quick removal of the clamp blues as the builder anctiously removes the clamp to make sure everything is o.k. (big no no)

As to removal...
I use the flat of a knife to burnish the glued portion away.
Sort of like sanding.
Don't try and remove the feather with an angled slice as you can cut into the fibers of the arrow and ruin it.

As to the Blazers...
If thats what you are comfortable with then use them.
The Razor sharks shouldn't really care as long as the bow is tuned

I use the Norway Zip Strip from Cabela's. It is a bit pricey at $32 but will last a lifetime and doesn't screw up your shafts.

Don't waste your time trying for any helical with Blazers, a couple degree offset works fine. I made up several different shafts with different twists and could not see one bit of difference in how they flew out to 50 yds.

I think I will back the bow down some. That seems simple. No big deal.

Also Bt you said that my arrows would hit more right, which they were but im lefty so I dont know if that makes a difference? I would assume not.

As to the fletching thats basically what I have been doing. I have been doing dry runs before hand. I have fletched up 5 arrows 1 was perfect one was barely acceptable( the one that looks funny in flight) and 3 were not even worth trying.

I put my bow back down to 62#'s no real improvement. I am so frusterated too.
