....I know everyone has their own favorite glue for arrow building....
...Has anyone used the double-sided adhesion tape to adhere their vanes to the shafts?
...What kind of results were obtained?...is it worth it?
Happy New Year to All!

Yep, that is correct, tape for feathers. Tape glue does not seem to hold to plastic. It will work but. When you tugging on shafts to remove from targets you'll end up with few vanes in your hand.

Have been using the tape on feather fletches for years now, and it works great! Like those before me have said, it is not for plastic vanes.

Hi Anthony, I've only seen it used with small curly vanes for compound shooting. I really see no benefit otherwise....besides I guess with feathers.
You're only paranoid if everyone isn't out to get you.
