I use a 35 year old Bitzenburger.  It’s fletched hundreds of arrows for me; and fletched thousands of arrows for the professional arrow maker from whom I bought it secondhand.

I have 27 bitzenburgers (24 left and 3 right) plus a jo jan multi straight.  All of them are about 35 year old or older.  Work great. dino

Bitzenberger for me. Been using it and my feather burner for years. Nothing like the smell of fresh burned feathers in the morning to clear a guys head!

My straight clamp arrieved last week. Fletched some flu flu's with fletch tape and used the BPE Pro Fletcher, 5 fletch, burned the feathers to about 1" height. They fly great. Can't wait to try them on squirrels and rabbits.

Jojan multi .....
“instinctive archery” is more like playing the violin. Without practice you may remember the mechanics, but you will not be a virtuoso.
