Hello everyone,
I've owned my Equinox for about 3 years now. During that time I've accumulated, shall we say, a "number" of arrows that need attention to their fletching. The Equinox sure puts them through the target.
I am ready to take the plunge to get myself kitted out with fletching gear. But, having never done any fletching before, I'm at a loss as to what I need. I've read things about the Bitzenburger (sp?) and have looked at a variety of El Cheapo fletching devices. Basically I just want to return my Firebolts to their factory configuration.
I guess what I'm looking for is a list of what I will need. Any help is appreciated.
I also like the ez fletch bolt better. Had a blitzenberg years ago with regular bow and it was a pain in the butt with all the drying time to do them 3 times. I like gorilla brand super glue that comes in the blue top. After they are fletched I put a drop at each forward point of the vanes. That helps a lot with pass throughs. Usually I'll end up getting a whole bumch of pass throughs before the vanes start looking terrible. They don't tear off though.
Do you see a trend here? The EZ-BOLT is a no brainer. Simple to use and the performance of the Blazer vanes is second to none. I have even used the EZ-BOLT to apply only one vane to a damaged bolt without removing the other vanes. It worked great and the bolt shot just like before. I think your only decision will be the type of glue that you want to use. Everybody has there preference. I prefer the premium fletch tite myself.

Thank you gentlemen. I've seen the light, and placed my order today for the EZ fletch bolt. Expecting a nice package from UPS sometime soon. Orange tiger stripe fletching oh my. Definitely more economical than buying new firebolts all the time. Will report on how it goes.
