Do you think it is worth me paying three dollars an arrow to be flethed or should I just buy the material and attempt to fletch them myself? I need about two dozen flethed. I am going from all straight arrows to all 4 deg right helical.

Save yourself a lot of money in the long run & buy a Bitzenburger and do your own fletching work. It's one of the best purchases I've made in archery.
Thanks Double Drops. Do you prefer the Bitzenburger over other models?

Yes, definitely. They are a little more expensive but they do an excellent job and will last a lifetime.
Cool, thanks for the advice.

I have owned a Bitzenburger for over 20 years now . They are a great fletching jig , well worth the investment . Fletching arrows is a great way to add a personal touch to your arrows too.
Ever since Eagle's Wing has closed I have no one to fletch my arrows. So, I guess now is the best time to start doing it myself.

+2 for the bitz. and you can play with so many variations with your arrow without having to go to the pro-shop and wait. Fletching arrows takes just as much patience and cocnetration as shooting does. I love doing it.
So let me get this straight. If I am going to fletch my own arrows and want a right helical fletch, all I need is the Bitzenburger jig and the right clamps for the right helical set? Do I need the straight clamps if I am only flething right helical? Thanks

Just get a jig with a right helical clamp. You won't need a straight if right helical is all you want.
Thanks, I will do that.
