flexfletch

[addo]

I,ve used flexfletch for about a month.Originally used the smallest ones but they didnt stabilize my arrows very well so switched to the 2" ones.They work better now.Are they alright to shoot 90m with?I ask cos they seem to drag a bit when they pass 70m.

They are a bit soft and rubbery but I'd like to carry on using them cos they have excellent memory properties.I've buried them in the boss a few times and put some serious kinks in them and i'm always hitting them at short distances.Magically,when i look at them the next day there is no sign of any damage at all

i use 1 1/2" flexfletch vanes but i use 4 of them, set on the bitzenberger 70 110 deg settings,
i have noticed alot of 3 fletch Flexfletch users have the 1 3/4" vanes
trial and error is the way to go for your particular set up
fletch a third of your arrows with 2" the other with 1 3/4" and 1 1/2' and what suits you the most,

I use the 1.87" low profile flexfletch and like them.

The are durable, offer good steering yet with the low profile (lower than titeflite) do not seem to lose sightmark.

For distance shooting (70m +) I too would recommend the FF 187. As for FF being "rubery", that's why they survive shoot throughs with no damage.

PS: Just FYI, FF 212s are my vane of choice for NFAA/IFAA field where the max distance is 80 yards.

I'm switching to ff187, I used to use the FFP175 and they were really good! Currently I use X-vanes 1.75" Have also tried the 1.50" and IMO they were both pretty much the same.

I'm currently using Flex-Fletch FFP-150 on my arrows, and they are the best fletches i've used (imo) as they can survive pass throughs, skidding along the ground and i've even shot a couple of fletchings off from tight groups and been able to pick it up off the floor and glue it straight back on

The "memory" that the Flexfletch plastic has also has another great property.
If you do bend one of them by a passthrough or by hitting the ground, you can get the fletch to return to its correct shape quicker by breathing on the fletch and heating it up.

Another good thing i find about them is that they have a big range of colours and some unusual ones.Because i haven't seen to many other archers use them they are easier to identify throught my scope.I fletched a couple of my arrows last week in the 2" dark red and pearlescent light blue and they really stand out.

I'm gonna order some 1.87" as suggested previously in this thread,and do all my arrows in the above colours.They are almost identical to my football team colours (claret and blue) and like my football team they can take their knocks
