That seems to suit me best but unfortunately cant find anywhere in the UK to get hold of either of those products just going to have to work with what I can get hold of.

I am thinking of buying myself a Bohning fletching jig and fletching up some arrows myself in order to save some money in the long run. There seems to be a massive variety of different vanes available and I was just wondering how much the different lengths and shapes actually affect flight, POI etc....

Thanks for the help

Cannot seem to find the weight of these bolts anywhere, was just wondering if they will be fine to shoot out of my Ibex as they are or if they are going to require the 110g brass insert to bring the weight up?

If the man Danny Miller says no wax on the serving but the manufacturer says yes, who do you listen to. Very confusing indeed for those of us that are pretty new to this hobby. Yeah...

I didnt no, it was more of a clean snap though, will definatley bear that in mind
