Folks,

Just wondering what you guys use to fletch your arrows with? I see many models/manufacturers out there but uncertain what is high quality and suited to feathers. Please guide the green horn!

I like the Bitzenburger very well. Quality jigg.
the best IMO.

Another vote for the Bitz.

Bitzenburger hands down.

The Bitzenburger is definitely a great jig, but the Bearpaw one from Kustom King also works very well & is a bit cheaper. Can't go wrong with either in my opinion.

I posted the same question a few weeks ago, I opted for the bohning jig, because of price. I have fletched about 3 dozen arrows with it so far and no complaints.

I have had my Bitz for 23 years now, no problems and still going strong.

I use the Bitzenberger, too. And fletch tape. If clumbsy old me can put a feather on a shaft, anybody can.

Bitzenburger is all I've ever needed.

I have 4 Jo-Jans that I got used from here.
They work well for me ,no problems

No. 1 = Bitzenburger. The heavy magnet, quality of the jig, and adjustibility of the clamp makes it easy to fletch a light helical to a tight helical.

Bitz for me.

I've used a my bitz. for 35 years. Works great, lasts a long time.

One more vote for a Bitz. They work perfectly and are made to last for many years.

Rob DiStefano · « **Reply #16 on:** February 13, 2011, 10:03:00 PM »

trust me, ya don't need a bitz. most any single vane polycarb fletcher will more than get the job done for $30 or less.

and if it matters, which it shouldn't, i've been building arras since the mid 50's and have owned at least 5 bitz jigs. "[dntthnk]"

Years ago I bought a Jo-Jan Multifletcher and have never looked back.Makes fletching a doz. arrows real easy.

NYArrow · « **Reply #18 on:** February 14, 2011, 07:00:00 AM »

Thanks for all the input! Seems bitz wins this vote by a fair amount. I'll start researching a source for one and hopefully be in business within the next week or so.

Bitz will last liketimes.
