How to do OFFSET with Easton EZ Fletch?
« on: April 03, 2018, 10:50:38 AM »
Hello there, I got an Easton EZ Fletch with 'straight-offset arms" but the fletching instructions are poor, and the fletching is coming perfectly straight.
Any tips? How do I get it to offset 4-5 degree (as advertised)?
Thanks!

the easton e-z fletch is the old arizona e-z fletch, and any offset or helical is built into the arms.  it is not a fletcher with any usable degree of adjustability, particularly with fletch offset/helical in mind.  yeah, it'll do 3 vanes at once, but these days with super glues and fletch tape, doing one vane at a time is just about as fast as 3 at once ...



the e-z fletch is a simple fletcher that works well as advertised.  however, there are far better fletching jigs to be had that will allow a much greater amount of use and adjustments, that include fletching from dead straight to full twist helical and any degree in between, as well as doing 4 and 6 fletch.

... or bpe/grayling ...



... are excellent polycarb jigs at low cost.  one could more than double those price tags with a bitzenburger, and having had a few of those, i'd still rather have my 3 bohnings and 2 graylings.

the ez-fltch does not fit all arrow sizes either,  with the single fletchers you can go from skinny carbons to thick wood arrows , with no problems.
