Title: 4 fletch question
Post by: BUCKY on October 03, 2007, 09:06:00 PM
I am currently using 3 5.5" helical feathers. I was thinking of using 4 5" feathers. If I do this can I put them helical or straight? What setting do I use on my Bitz jig? Thanks

The second or third setting and helical is how I do it.

Some like 75x105 (I do) and some like the 90... can't say there's a difference.

I like 75x105 or 60x120 better than 90.

I shoot 4 5" at 90 degrees helical. I started shooting 4 fletch back in 1969 and have been shooting them ever since.

I like 4  5"  high profile shields @ 90 degrees.  I put as much helical as the JoJan will handle.  Love the way they fly.
