- DCA Vane Angle Tool: bit.ly/3B8BT9h
The Vane Angle Tool from DCA Custom Arrows is actually a 7" section of .204" inside diameter shaft with a nock. The heart and soul of this tool is an arrow wrap that shows angles from 0 - 6 degrees left or right. Use this patent-pending tool to precisely set up your Bitzenburger fletching jig to the desired helical (or offset) angle. Click the link above to learn more. - Спорт
I was standing in line at Lancaster Archery Supply when I got this videos notification!
Thanks guys for doing the video! Don't forget you can twist the nock seam to the right, usually about the thickness of the vane, and get more offset or helical. Instructions are also on the back of the card. KOTA also did a video demonstrating it that is on my website.
Thanks again for helping out the extremely small guys in the industry.
@@saulgood6190 Works great with all size shafts. When you set it up you are basically going off the center of the axis of the shaft. I use it for .166, .204 and .246.
Thanks!
Just bought one of these from you last week. Seemed like a super great idea.
I can’t get much more than a degree of offset.
I used a straight flight and wanted to fletch at 2 degrees left offset on my 400 5MM FMJ.
My 50 year old eyes have difficulties with the fine lines
Hey Steve feel free to send me a message and I can help you out with it. Thanks bud!
@@dcacustomarrows1816 Thanks for your help yesterday ! Great customer support
@@stevepav8604 Thank you Steve. Good talking to you. Everybody remember to twist the nock on the Vane Angle Tool to get the vane properly aligned on the shaft.
@@dcacustomarrows1816 I'm trying to do the same and new to the Bitz and purchased the VAT with the Bitz. I'm trying to do a 2 degree offset on my Victory VForce 350 with Bohning Heat vanes but can't get solid contact with the length of the shaft. When I try the 2 degrees with the VAT shaft and 2" Blazers, there is barely any contact. Confused, too, as the back of the card shows the corner of the vane in one of the four corners in the circle, but in this video, it looks like the back of the vane is even with the dashed centerline. For two degrees, does the vane have to be on the far side of the 2 line? Also, not clear on twisting the nock on the VAT. The KOTA video is good but does not answer some questions, and the wrap they use is not the same as the one that is shipped. More videos and instructions would be of great help. Thank you.
@@jeff6strings397 I sent you a reply to your email as well. A few people are missing a step to twist the nock to the right, for right offset or helical vanes. The centerline of the nock that is formed from the molding process should be over to the right of the red arrows. Try twisting the nock as shown on the back in the instructions and see if that helps.
Just wondering how one size diameter is going to relate to all of the different size shafts on the market?! When going from one size shaft to another size shaft (with a Bitz) you always have to re adjust the clamp to shaft alignment to ensure proper adhesion.
This is probably a grand idea!
But… Perhaps it would be better to offer different size wraps of this effect for all the available size shafts out there.
🤷♂️ jus saying…

@@dcacustomarrows1816 can it work for a 23 diameter & a 25 diameter target arrow
Just bought one of these, doesn't seem to work to get much more than a degree of helical on a bigger shaft like a Superdrive 23...at least I don't know how to get it more than that. Edit, should also state I'm using AAE Pm-23 vanes in a 4 fletch config on that superdrive shaft with a right helical clamp
agree !!
What’s the jig you were using?
Do the make them for different arrow diameters
Just get cali buck stickers for your bitz
Why do those tell you exactly what degree offset you end up with bc from what I saw they are just hash marks on a piece of white tape
@@jdonez8347 each mark is a degree. Without them it's just a guess
Looks like DCA found a way to sell their arrow rejects for more money than their good ones.
What good ones?
We only use fresh, free-range, gluten-free, arrow shafts for the VATs.
They are actually Gold Tips. I don't make arrow shafts. I build custom-tuned arrows using Easton, Black Eagle, etc.
