Gold tip pro hunter(fallow up)

[Ckirk4bama]

I have been shooting these arrows for about three weeks, I love the arrows however the fletchings seem to really suck. Had anyone else had this problem with the gold tip factory fletchings? Please excuse my ignorance as I have always bought bare shafts and built the arrows myself.

Why do they suck? Falling off? Wrinkling?

 

[Ckirk4bama]

Wrinkling badly( sorry should have posted that originally

what size fletching? I take it you are shooting a biscuit.

X2 on the whisker biscuit. Whisker biscuit will wrinkle vanes after extensive shooting.

Yeah mine were crap too! I loved the arrows though! Very tough!

The first dozen I ever bought were alright for a while, but then the fletchings started doing the same thing, so from then on when I bought new arrows, Id eaither buy just the shafts and fletch them myself, or Id call ahead to the bow shop I used in New Mexico and have the guys fletch a new batch for me. Never had another problem with them since.

When I used the bisquit I shot feathers never had a problem with wrinkling or coming off.

No actually I was shooting a qad drop away, put blazers on them today should make for much better results. They just seemed cheap and thin. I was also shooting an old cheap block and my bow was making complete pass throughs. I think that foam had some to do with it too. Shot a biscuit before and I too noticed how hard on the blazers it was. But I'll shoot a lot this week with the new setup and keep you guys posted.
