    I shoot the PSE Carbon Force Dominator. Like them quite a bit. I just bought some new ones and had florecent orange wraps put on with (2) florecent green fletchs and (1) white. with the black shaft I think it looks pretty neat and should stand out once she blows through and sticks in the ground. Let us know what you decide on there are a lot of good choices out there.

    did you have any games this last weekend?



    Why do they make it taste so good and put it in them little bitty cans- Dad

    Head....
    I shoot Black Hawk Vapor 4000 Carbon arrows. I shoot them really well. But, I recently took off the flecthings that came on it and replaced them with the Extreme Shrink to fit Fletchings and I am hitting 6" groups at 60 yards!

    Welcome Fannin, I was telling another forum member that I actually thought of attatching fletching to heat shrink about 5 years ago and never followed through. How do you like them? I know they are not too cheap pretty pricy like 14.00 for 6 ?

    Yes, they are a little on the high end side, but considering the cost of getting arrows fletched and having to take the time to go somewhere and get it done, it's worth it. It will make it nice if you need to refletch in the feild too.
    I do like them a lot though. They are giving me tighter groups then any other fletchings I've had, including the quickspins. Plus they are really easy to put on, and I heard that you can twist them a bit and get a helical out of them.

    Yeah, I read about that earlier in the forum, that's what gave me the idea to see how they preform. I have many inventions that I am kicking myself over too. Sucks, but it seem we all have something like that happen. Oh well.

    just buy a jo jan or a nice bitzenburg and fletch what ever you want ...the bitzenburgs are the best but expensive ..the jo jan is about 80.00 and you can fletch 6 arrows at a time
