Thanks for the quick and simple video. No way I’m buying 12 though at $50 each I’ll go with 1.
I've been using the Arizona easy fletch for years and was thinking of going to bitz. But wondered about the real benefit of it. This answered my question, not much benifit, not to mention they just look to be a pain to use lol. Think I stick with the Arizona easy Fletcher. The deer and hogs I've killed didn't care about the Fletcher I used😉
Accuracy is the biggest benefit and being able to control how close the fletching is to the nock end.
how dare you tell me i cant buy 4 vein master pro's!!
your right i can't I'm broke lol
What does a $300 arrow look like! Is it silver tipped for ware-wolves!!
(Disclaimer- the ware-wolf thing is a joke; I do not believe in Ware-wolves, but I am curious what makes an arrow cost 300$)
It's getting easy to spend 2 3 hundred on a dozen arrows. With today's quality and precision.
@@ericswafford9149 I understand on a dozen but I wonder if a three hundred dollar arrow shoots good enough to justify the cost.
*were-wolves
@@jakeoutrider7644 Good catch! I didn't realize it was spelled that way. Thanks for the lesson, I enjoy learning new things and today it is the correct spelling of werewolf!
@@-10ranch - for competition shooters it does. For hunters and amateurs - no
I use Decut nexus..easy setup n AAE jig..i prefer decut nexus jig..hail!
My shop used only Bitzenberger. They made a plywood rotating, lazy Susan, table which held twelve jigs, slightly offset so there was no shaft interferences. The first jig was set to the desired offset.They then epoxy glued a piece of sheet metal, same thickness as a vane, to an arrow shaft. They kept it in case they wore out an indexing knob and had to reset the jig.The remaining 11 jigs had the offset screws loosened. The setup shaft with the metal vane, with the clamp still on the metal vane, was then placed, one at a time into each jig. The loosened magnets pulled themselves into position and then tightened.
When fletching arrows, by the time each arrow had a vane in place, you could continue with the second vane and so on. A dozen shafts could be fletched quickly. Pretty necessary when a shop sells hundred if not thousands of arrows.
Tournament arrows, 1 jig.
Whats better for feather fletching?
My only complaint with the AZ ez fletch is the degree is 6 and after 60-70 yards you get a little parachute affect
We tested the 3 fletch EZ with a 4 fletch and 3fletch straight out of a bitz to 121 yards. The helical was much better than the 3 fletch straight but both the 4 fletch straight and offset as well as the EZ fletch helical flew in very similar groups and maintained the same height of impact. I’m not saying there wasn’t any extra drag added by the helical or 4 fletch but both direct a BH to field point at a very long distance. The straight 3 fletch was extremely difficult to get tuned to that distance.
@@KorbinsArchery so would u say a helical is better than a offset?
@@KorbinsArchery I use tac vanes and I run about a 3 degree offset but it may be a little helical in it I have my bitz jig the max it can go with still having a good hold on the vane. Is it hard for y'all to use that ez jig with tac vanes cause they're so stiff?
Then you put the wrong helical on your vanes. You need to clock your arrows
Thank You for this Video.
What is the distance (in inches) from the throat of the nock to the start of the vane is the EZ Fletch set at ?
Thanks in advance.

Great video! Very informative.I was thinking of going with Bitz but I like the ease of use you demonstrated with EZ fletch. Thank you
Is the bohning cauldron worth a shot? The kit seems good with all the diff plates but i have a Bitz with the AAE reciever and havent seen much on the cauldron jig
I like it. This is my second year using it. It’s pretty much like Arizona ez fletch but it comes with straigh, 1 degree left and right 3 degree left and right so I think it’s worth the money
I used a bitzenberger for a few years but switched to a bpe profletch. Never had a problem. Holds the arrow much better than the bitz. The ez fletch doesn't always put the vanes on perfect, kinda shoddy if you look close.
300 dollar arrows? Are u crazy
Does access glue plug up the ez fletch?
just a question of curiosity can an Arizona easy fletch, put a helical using a tac vane on a small dia. arrow? any recommendations?
TAC vane is too stiff to use the EZ with
Will this work with flat nocks
Great video and to the point
Are the Arizona easy fletches all a hard helical? Or can they do a straight fletch as well?
They make straight, left, right and I also different sizes for different vanes
Question/Content Idea: Toilets flush different directions Northern Hemisphere Vs. Southern. Does the helical fletch matter Clockwise Vs. Counter clockwise based on which hemisphere you are in as far as accuracy is concerned. Which arrow rotation is more accurate in the Northern Hemisphere... Is it the same results in the Southern Hemisphere... Or is there no difference in accuracy clockwise Vs Counterclockwise arrow rotation?
I think its simply to match the natural rotation of the arrowing leaving the bow so the arrow stabilizes quicker for better accuracy. Too much helical can cause a parachute effect at longer distances.
That’s wacko!

You could also show GAS PRESSURE (what we have on Earth) WITHOUT a Container ...?

wow
I have an Arizona EZ and I have had issues with glue build up. I don't know if it was the type of glue I was using or what but once I got a little glue on the plastic I was never able to get it off and the fletchings never sat right again
Just use air conditioning tape on it. That will keep it from sticking
Also just soak it in acetone and they will clean right up. (Obviously do this safely and following all precautions)
@@andreweddy86 I’ll post a cleaning video for y’all. Super simple.
@@andreweddy86 drop them in acetone. Solves the issue
Let it sit for 24hrs after use
Mine has built up glue and messed up heights on a bunch of flecthings. Pita. Will soak in acetone before next batch
@@dionysis84 soak it in acetone. Glue comes right off
