hold off on sellin ur stuff .....Dont make rash decisions :? hunting byurself only increasis ur chances of seeing deer. When you have company in the woods with you they may be spooking the deer. Just a thought :o

deer jamie: I'm using the standard Firebolt right out of the box...with 4" vains. Glue isn't an issue...no build up. And the spin test shows no wobble. Not sure what it is. old fart jim: 4" vains, not much of an offset. I don't do my own fletching or re-fletching. I was told the Firebolts...

Huh!!!! i use firebolts and boltcutters and get a 1-2 inch grouping at 20 yrds!! wit a exomax by chance did you take a good look at the glue that attaches ur fletching sometimes excess glue can cause ur arrow not to sit proper. I always check my throughly before i use them (new ones) :D

I didn't see any difference in the POI. It would stand to reason that the arrow hitting the rain wound slow it down. There is probably mo...
