I am going to buy my first fletching jig...what do you guys recommend.
Arizona E-Z fletch 1 or 6 degree, or bitzenburger, or whatever?

bitzenburger  tried and true.

I use jo-jan and bitzenburger and like them both.  Both are reliable and last you the rest of your life. dino

Bitzenburger, you'll never reqret it.

Jerry Jeffer

If you are going to do a lot of fletching and want a good investment, get the Bitz.

If you have the money go with the Bitzenburger. You won't be sorry!!! I currently use a Grayling which works pretty good, but will be getting a Bitzenburger soon.

54" 48@28 jeffreys royal T/D
62" 50@28 Black Canyon 3pc T/D
62" 59@28 Crow creek 3pc T/D

Been using the same Bitzenberger jig for over 30 years now. Have a JoJan or what ever they were called before that name. It's good as well, but I much prefer the Bitzenberger.

From what I've seen of the Arizona it's better suited to small plastic fletch with little or no twist.

bitz by far....used mine heavily for 25 years and paid for itself time and time again.

The Bits come with many many good recommendations.  I have been using a Grayling jig for a few years and it works good.  If money is not a big factor I would have gotten the bitz.  And have been thinking about picking one up for awhile.

Its not about the weapon used, its about the adventure involved.

Bitz. Four of the rascals! They will outlive me.

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I hate to be the dissenting voice but I use Vador jigs.  The whole jig costs what a Bitz clamp costs.  If money is no object, then get the Bitz.  If you're like me and need to get the most for your money, consider a Vador.

I have a Jo Jan that is 20 years old and it is still fletchin arrows as good as the day I bought it I have had no problems. But my buddy has a Bitz that is a fine fletcher also so I wouldnt count it out either.
