Building Arrows for Dummies - Sort of!

[@gtchalie5038]

Gotta admire anyone who wants to learn all aspects of archery. You're in a unique position to teach also. Good video.

[@ricknmoe100]

She had me at, 3/16”. That cracked me up. 😎🤙

[@BoxieOutdoors]

Great arrow build. Those will do great tipped with those 100gr Slick Tricks. Good Luck this year and have a BLESSED day

[@johnw.9572]

Great video. Quick tip. I use a scented wax melting pot with small candle underneath for my insert glue. Keeps it melted while doing all arrows. Works great!

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

Haha I definitely got wax all over so that would be perfect

[@MDB270]

Definitely a bigger sense of accomplishment when you take an animal knowing you did it all yourself. Sorry I missed the premiere, catch you on the next one!!!!

[@marcchenoweth8276]

Love that you are building your own arrows!

[@perry296]

I always move my wraps down about a half inch. This allows you to see any cracks in your arrow if you happen to have an arrow strike.

[@MrHip76]

Smart....never thought of that

[@lorihamrick9349]

Like the colors you are using. Good to know how to do your own so your not waiting on someone else to help you out. You did a great job.

[@louisbrownell4530]

I enjoy watching your videos how or who taught you had to do what you do with your arrows and how you know what the deers are doing and where they live? When is the best time to look for sheds

[@chasinracin55]

Girl, you had me worried that you were gonna catch your hair on fire! Great tutorial. Keep up the good work 👍

[@fredgillick3071]

Hey Kaitlyn, your showing everyone your " Killer Kaitlyn Arrow " build. If your deer season will be like your gobbler season, look out bucks. Can't wait till deer season begins.

[@Paul_McDonald]

Very nice. 👌 I like the fact that you take your time with building your arrows. It can save alot of headache. 😜

[@ericwiitala5407]

Great job! Just found your channel and I'm enjoying your content. I did shoot the 5mm Axis and I upgraded to the Match grade w/the 4 fletch AAE vanes. I was very happy with my arrows and won't be making any changes this year. They are very consistent in weight and arrow flight.

[@jmonnide131]

Great job! Good luck with new 🏹

[@Archie_Fletcher]

Any way I can propose to you on Chris’ behalf? 😂 Talk about a power duo, you guys are inspirations for many young, aspiring hunters like myself to get after it, and make great friends in the process! Thanks for all of the great videos Kaitlyn and Chris!

[@MONKLJ]

What a sweetheart, love your video, , one tip, put just a spot of glue right on the front of the vane, when your done at assure that when shooting, your vane doesn't tear of when leaving the shelf or rest whichever your using.

[@angiemarshall1088]

Always entertaining and educational ..I too thought ya was gonna catch your hair on fire with that torch..

[@Abi-Ellis]

I got bored fletching my arrows and decided to turn on the KZbin. Glad I found your video and we could fletch our arrows together 🤙🏻

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

I'm sure they turned out great 👍🏼

[@Abi-Ellis]

@@KaitlynMausOutdoors sure did..Other than they have pink fletchings 🤢. But it’s worth it with the color, I’m able to find my arrow in that thick Kansas stuff.

[@dana44169]

Like your choice of fletching vane colors

[@frankanusky3095]

I'm lazy i use shrink wrap.. Great looking arrows, Can't wait to see the Deer you get with them..

[@rackshackarchery9966]

Grab yourself a denatured alcohol burner for your hot melt glue. Easy, safe, quiet. Great content keep up the great work and thank for working with an independent shop like Korbin’s.

[@ApexPredatorOutdoors]

A little tip I have found is that if the spine is the same down the length, (does not change dynamically) you can cut from the end with the wobble and put the insert into the original nock end of needed. Your logo will be off, but you are not wasting arrow shafts.

[@Rubin5342]

I like the enlarged leading edge on the inserts, makes a slightly larger hole in a tough target so it pulls out easier during practice. Thanks for great vids. I also use an 6 shaft JoJan for fletching. Goes quicker. //ji

[@generoush3823]

I like to use a right offset on my vanes cause that will make the points stay tight, specially if you do a lot of target shooting, a left off set or helical you will always have to tighten your points after a shot or 2.

[@pestka7151]

Good to know

[@FullDrawOutdoors]

Nice job, couple tips. On those arrows that have some odd rolling to them, when you put them in the roller and spin them you can see which end or both ends have wobble, and cut that end off. Will help reduce waste in arrows that are out of spec. Also watch the torch when doing that, I've seen someone smash the insert in and the torch falls over lol. Was also close to your hair! Also if you're taking the time to build them, knock tune them as well. Before fletching them set up a target about 10-12 yards and shoot it bare shaft, you'll notice the arrow will kick, you twist the knock until the shaft is looking straight back at you, once you hit that point mark the arrow and knock and fletch it up. Will help you out with accuracy a little more.

[@HighRoad317]

Good for you building you're experience!!!

[@robertfrantzll8083]

You rock. Love your attitude.

[@MI-roots-outdoors]

i must have an off brand jig, mines a BITZenburger and you have a BLITZenbuger, you guys have all the good stuff!!

[@davidkingii7160]

They look awesome good job

[@brucescott9814]

Awesome looking arrows Kaitlyn one small tip warm your insert a little bit stops hot melt from setting so fast 👍👍

[@maegan5230]

I’m using gold tip velocity xt 500 and I really like them! Definitely try them if you haven’t yet.

[@Glock-1]

If Chris ends up marrying her he has the perfect wife! She’s hott and loves outdoor stuff!

[@tomhemming2139]

Does your kitchen floor that clean bet it does!you are a awesome bow girl every little step that you do makes you better!!

[@caseyberning7789]

If you or Chris tune your bow, I think you could shoot a bare shaft and it would fly like a dart, lol. Those deer are in trouble this year

[@HoughGroup]

This girl is focused, and yes she will do well in life! Take some summer time and enjoy K! Then, tear into the fall with a vengeance and stick the buck of a lifetime! Peace

[@according2petey25]

WELL HELLO0O0O0O0 THERE MISS KAITLYN🦃 another awesome video, I could watch and listen to you all day long!👌 "warm outside finally" as she wears ear warmer inside😂😂 take care bright eye's from Vermont🦃🦃🏹🏹

[@barryminnican9925]

You made that look easy

[@fr8cture]

That glue sets really quick I usually only wait a few seconds before moving to the next vane.

[@louisbrownell4530]

If I was shooting compound I’d like the 2 inch vains but you like almost in the middle, between 2 - 3 vains. I’m sure it’s personal preference but is there a difference really between two and 3 inch veins when you’re almost in the middle of them for the size?

[@jamieshelton3570]

Did Chris help you out on which arrows to shoot, I'm in the need of some help

[@lsoutdoors2354]

Great video love seeing these kinda vids

[@kadinkadin1]

TOP,AND PERFECT KAITLYN...

[@WeekendPursuitOutdoors]

Have you had any problems with those aluminum outserts bending?

[@brendawells7025]

Awesome video my only complaint would be u didn’t plug in the Mathews sign when you entered the shop 😝 jk not really lol I love that sign . Again great video look forward to the next one !

[@jeffstamps5159]

good job kid i learned a little bit

[@NorthwoodsPeachTree]

great vid, thanks for sharing

[@rossmomany3033]

Which arrow jig do you use?

[@michaelabercrombie5744]

I was hoping you would weigh your arrow from last season too. Curious the difference between and how it feels to you.

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

I can do a comparison this summer when I start shooting

[@deansmith9383]

Kaitlyn I saw a video the other day where you shot over a nice buck I have a little tip you can try instead of coming down on a deer with your sight come up from the bottom of the deer I was having the same problem so I changed to coming up from the bottom that way if you punch the trigger a little early the deer will react to the shot and drop into the arrow if you come from the top and punch early the deer will react and it will duck your arrow if you see this try practicing coming up from the bottom it helped me a lot I would either blow out the heart or both lungs love your videos hope this helps your buddy dean 🌹

[@mikejessie8671]

When are u and chris getting engaged lol

[@ashton3027]

@Mike Jessie your gonna have to ask Chris that lol

[@mikeharryhunt1709]

Umm, never? Christopher is mine. Him and Kaitlyn ate just business partners

[@mikeharryhunt1709]

Just joking, don't wanna start ah fight lol. I was just playing around

[@m_andersonoutdoors]

New camera? That is friggin sweet quality video

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

Nope, it's my canon g7x. Studio lighting helps with quality vs the woods 😂

[@heliarc4338]

I’m using the same stet up with the half out inserts and they seem Easier to pull out of target

[@larryhuggins6011]

I've had good luck with Easton's for the past 15 years or so.

[@sc_archery86]

Great video!!

[@josephr1198]

I like to use a heat gun to heat up the insert instead of heating up the hot melt. Learned that from Paige Pearce.

[@garrettstraffon608]

I killed my 10 point this year with a Easton axis 340, normal hit insert, rage broad head, and it was a clear pass through. Ran 60 yards. They are a heavier arrow and the 5mm diameter flys good in wind. I love them

[@normanbontrager6999]

An old computer mouse pad works great for putting wraps on.

[@Thrilloftheoutdoors1]

Awesome video btw When you cut that first arrow it freaked my lil sister's dog out it was so funny

[@akvc2003]

Nice video Kaitlyn you really helped this dummy thanks lol

[@GeLeeOutdoors]

Great videos as always keep it up 🙌🏽

[@tylersalisbury6254]

Don’t forget to put a drop of glue on the front and back of the vane, also with that glue you only have to wait about 5 seconds, then you can move to the next vane. But I love the build, awesome watch.

[@nikkitabilyk6980]

What are you doing in Chris’s shop ?

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

It's our shop lol

[@jesseteick891]

You go girl!

[@shadyp-zv3uf]

Wow that's awesome get to have tons of amazing equipment to learn. I still only have a 4 year old bear bow and bloodsport arrows and it has taken me 4 years to get to this point. Happy hunting this year, remember me and my wife really could use a descent bow if you give one away this season. BTW those arrows look amazing 👏

[@fifthof1398]

How often do you get pass thru shots on deer ?

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

Every shot I've taken so far has been a Pass through. (Knock on wood) Even with various shot placements and yardages

[@johndalton1425]

great Video, great Kaitlyn 🥇💎👍🏻🍀🌺🙏💝♾

[@harryohanson]

What was the total length of these arrows? My draw length is 38” and I can’t seem to find a bow or arrows for me. Thank you!

[@rackshackarchery9966]

38” wow... you will need custom equipment for sure. Are you over 7’ tall?

[@harryohanson]

@@rackshackarchery9966 thank you for replying! Most people so far have avoided the subject. I am 6’4” but I have long arms and legs. I have more interest in traditional eastern archery so have been looking for horse bow but no luck. Doesn’t help that I also financially challenged. I am good with my hands so probably end up making all my equipment. Again, thank you!

[@normanbontrager6999]

I have a buddy that shoots 35 1/2 inch draw who has a bow shop so he went to the bow tech factory and built himself one. He only shoots 58 pounds but he’s doing 340 fps because of his length.

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

Ha mine top our around 26" so nowhere near what you need. But I'm also short. You would definitely be better off looking at traditional bows, but even then I can't think of one with that length. Might need to research a bit

[@harryohanson]

@@KaitlynMausOutdoors thank you!

[@sharkiesgirl8929]

THE "SALLY FIELDS" (ACTRESS) OF OUTDOOR CHANNELS. 😂😂😂👌👌👌👍👍✌✌✌

[@draven3838]

Great video ,I use 6 in feathers on my arrows because I shoot a 85# osage orange longbow, my arrows a 800 gr.and a heavy spine

[@bobdozepy5807]

Arrow spins determined on bowstring twist. Mark blanks with a marker shoot at target close to see the natural twist and add fletchings accordingly. Sure Chris Bee knows that🙏🙏🙏

[@ld5954]

Jesus, I thought you were going to catch your hair on fire!!!🙈🔥

[@fredgillick3071]

That's what I thought

[@elijahscull4859]

Same here lol

[@randyboteilho9125]

Be Safe ! O.K.! She came close huh guys ?

[@qaswara76]

thanks God that thay are beautiful

[@tracygrieder6217]

Hope you two do get married. I use an arrow square(er) after cutting my arrows to length. I also use it after inserting my bushing. Great video, there are better fletching jigs also.

[@wootdaddy]

If you can cut from each end and recheck for straitness they may become a shooter arrow instead of practice.

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

I cant shoot anything shorter or it won't reach my rest. Definitely good to cut from both ends initially though

[@wootdaddy]

@@KaitlynMausOutdoors not that I am an expert but I cut one inch from each end and check it until i get to my drop dead length. Works out great for me anyhow I love you're shows keep up the good work

[@garrettstraffon608]

That should have gave you a squaring stone for the end of the arrows but you should be good, I personally like hunting with the arrows I practice with. Number them and you will find your best one. There’s always one that just flys perfect.

[@brendawells7025]

What broadheads do you shoot?

[@MattMacKo]

So what is your total grains at the end of the day? I am at 438 with Axis 5mm. Im going to be setting my 15y (soon to be 16yr) daughter up with a bow. I imagine she is probably be a 40-45lb draw weight with a confirmed 26 draw.

[@pappawheels]

You are in Chris Bees shop!!!!

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

Our shop 😂😁

[@WildTines]

I have not the courage to create arrows 😅 mainly cause I don’t have the supplies... YET 🤟🏼

[@Kurtdog63]

You can rub string wax on the edge of the jig to keep any excess glue from gluing clamp to your fletching. Check out EZ fletch. You can fletch all vanes/feathers at the same time. You can get them straight fletch or different degrees of helical. It doesn't take much spin to improve accuracy. I experimented with straight and helical vanes on one of my crossbow set ups, and the helical was definitely more accurate. I shoot helical out of all my recurve and compound set ups. Check out Ranch Fairy channel for improving flight and arrow lethality. Start with his video, The Process.

[@jeffreyjohnston8939]

Tell Chris to add a vacuum to the arrow saw.

[@HawgHunter63]

Is that Chris Bee's shop?

[@KaitlynMausOutdoors]

Our shop, but yes lol

Wow

[@ssmith3711]

That’s 25 3/8 girl, but close lol

[@glenntracy5819]

Your Awsome

[@your0a0asshole]

Ok,....broad heads are supposed to be at least an inch in front of your riser or inch and a half,.....and a little longer is a little more kinetic energy. Unless its a newer bow that's designed for an over draw. I only choose to make Arrows of Aluminum or wood. The drag from feathers and vanes help the arrow recover from the Archers paradox. A little off set creates spin. A cement type glue is used for some styles of nocks, feathers and veins. A hot melt glue is used on incert's. And some people use epoxy on inserts. You want 4-5 inch vanes or feathers for broadheads,......... on some mechanicals it don't matter. And if you a head hunter (doe in heat) put in a like a travel sized hair spray bottle. I lay down in a hay field I spray 3 times into the wind and list for moving grass raise up and shoot.

[@dnth8rel8]

40 yards at 43lbs of pull sounds like it could cause some hurt deer instead of dead deer. Imo

[@kraigkline4375]

I have to add.... Sometime when you are bored, look up Tim Wells on KZbin, and watch his videos. He shoot instinctive but you might still learn something :)

[@barrettarchery5515]

The aae vans are a 2.6’ profile 😂

[@Glock-1]

Absolutely beautiful lady and she loves bow hunting are you serious? There are perfect women! Well at least this one is!

[@kraigkline4375]

Well first off its good to see you are building your own arrows. Next, stop touching any surface glue is gonna stick to... The oil in your skin could ruin a glue joint.... Then when gluing your inserts in, the insert should be hot so the glue sticks better..... When you get a chance fletch 3 shafts with right helical fletchings, because the helical fletchings help your shaft fly straighter when dealing with cross winds... I had my own archery shop for years so I kind of know what Im talking about.... Also if you glue down the ends of your vanes, they will hold on better if you ever have an arrow pass through a target.

[@mattvanmalsen311]
