Title: Which fletching jig should I get?
Post by: Lt. Dan on July 18, 2009, 02:02:00 PM

What's the cheapest fletching jig that still does a good job?  How much offset?  Does the AZ Easy Fletcher work with feathers?  Thank you.  (I only need to fletch a few arrows.)

I used a Grayling jig for 15 years, it is the same as the old Martin J 15. not sure about the Arizona. I fletched at least 500 arrows with the Grayling but had to replace it with a Bitzenberger . the Grayling has ajustable helical dont buy a straight jig

If you are only fletching a couple then you probably can do it be hand and eye.  Pencil in where you want them and the helical twist and glue them on.
