NAP QuickFletch Review and Demo!

[@jameshardy4694]

I used to draw the same way you do and i figured out i shoot a lot more comfortably with my elbow up on draw

[@Intranetusa]

Drawing with the elbow elevated or drawing in an elevated downwards arc allows you to use more of your stronger back muscles rather than relying your weaker arm and shoulder muscles. Justin Ma on the Way of Archery's channel has a great video on using optimized drawing techniques from history (eg. military manuals), which helps a small-framed guy like him draw his ~130 lb traditional recurve war-bows: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6eqcox4gs2Vgbs And the first comment is from Joe Gibbs - a well known English warbow enthusiast who draws 140-160 lb warbows regularly and can draw up to a 200 lb warbow.

[@bbbbbbb2357]

As long as you have your hand open you will instinctually close it upon loosening the arrow. Try touching the tip of your pinky to the front of the handle as well as the tip of your index finger on the front of the handle leaving your middle two fingers loose. Great video as always!

[@blackbeard0323]

Love how everyone has critiques, you do you boo. I've been shooting for 25 years and find consistency is the biggest thing rather everyone else's ideas of a perfect draw or release. Cam shoots trigger releases and slaps the shit out of them, but its what he knows so it works.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

For sure. Thanks Chris!

[@menelmacar3]

That’s what I typically use for the past few years. However, my dad uses Nufletch. You should check them out next. Elk archery season in Colorado is just weeks away!! Who else is excited??

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Oh ya!

[@Grond605]

OMG SOOOOOO COOL. I would definitely say that they are taking fletching innovation to the next level, Great vid📣🔥🔥🔥

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching Sam.

[@timbarnett3898]

That's shrink tape, basically used to coat electrical wire connector covers. In wiring use bic lighter or other heat source, but boiling water would shrink tape equally for better arrow flight! I've used these tapes an I like them! I make my own arrows cause I like doing that too! Thanks, Tim p.s. I just cleaned my arrows yesterday an was interested in not hurting shafts an I see you today thinking same thing, haha! Tim

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the feedback Tim!

[@glenndunn6885]

I've been using them for a couple of years and had zero issues with them. They work great even on pass through shots

[@OutdoorsAllie]

We've had a few come off with pass throughs, but that's not big deal because of the ease of installation.

[@michaelb2076]

I shoot quickflech all the time. Solid product and very accurate, only problem I've had is sometimes the spacing of the vanes is a little off, but it's only a matter of cutting it off and replacing it.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I'll have to take a closer look!

[@Sonicguy95]

Good concept, not as durable as expected in practice. But they may have gotten better since 5 years ago when I first tried them and they were fresh on the market. Also they don’t seem to stand up to a whisker biscuit as factory fletching. My go to standby is knowing how to prep an arrow, flex fletch, and a grayling jig. I’ve moved to rustolum spray can cap dip, crest, urethane coat, fletch tape, and feathers (trad guy). But I still think flex fletch is a fantastic glue. Got to learn to put a thin line down the fletching, about 1/5 the width of the fletching. Its a thin line for sure, but too much can be as bad or worse than not enough. Without a doubt though, if you need to fletch in a hurry, they will get an arrow stabilized and last long enough to finish the hunt, or even season depending on who you are.

[@Uubtube123]

I have the quickfletch on some arrows from over 5 years ago. They are great and cheap and fly great. Just go slow and steady with the dip, and pay attention if you get an air bubble in it. If you do just peel it off and try again, because that will cause them to peel

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Good to hear!

[@MrMann703]

I had some arrows for my airjavelin that need the fletchings replaced from testing how tight of a group I could get so I picked up a pack of these and I love how easy they go on. Going to test how they fly tomorrow. Great video

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching Lauren!

[@toddferrell518]

I’ve sent them trough several deer and turkeys and never had an issue and makes for a good looking arrow

[@OutdoorsAllie]

glad to hear that.

[@johnstripsky8974]

Gonna look up the product as I am concerned about shaft diameter and fletch profiles. See if there are options on those parameters. Good video.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Glad you liked it John!

[@johnshort4421]

Good product but definitely not the end all solution to fletching mishaps. Bad thing is they just do not last but does get you back to shooting quickly. At this point though, if I have a fletching issue, I just walk in from my backyard range and reflects at my bench. Quick and it’s done right and will last more than a few walk to n fro’s from the target. Good job and love your videos!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks John!

[@dragonhuntarchery7506]

I tried those before and didn't like them. to help you from grabbing the bow try placing your index finger on the front of the bow that's how I teach people to keep their hand loose on the bow. good video and keep the arrows flying.

[@tylerbell1831]

These are really great the package directions say boiling water for 10 seconds (which I did) but started having problems with cracking and sliding but leaving them in for a few more seconds solved my problem

[@OutdoorsAllie]

hmmm that's no good. Mine are still in perfect shape!

[@jblaze114]

i love these too, i suggest cleanibg the bare shaft well, maybe sanding, and apply some spray adhesive before boiling them on. ive had them silde uo or down before doing that. if they come out with 4 fletch veins id go back. if you mangle up a vein, just boil it again and it will straighten again.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the tips!

[@BookOfHuntsman]

Go these same ones a few months back. They work great! I literally just now released a video showing how I took a spent arrow with this fetching on it and turned it into the antenna on my truck!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

LOL thats great.

[@adked1841]

Just re-fleched my practice arrows and have no issues at all...Very simple...

[@THGOklahoma]

I love using the NAP FLETCH. They are more durable and dont tear off or bend out of shape after shooting arrows, like the originals that come with it

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Good to hear!

[@wildfire365]

Pretty neat item. I think I would have checked the weight of the arrow first then install and check again. Don't want it but around 600 grans with most of the weight up front at tip.

[@chadolson5537]

Thanks for the video. Good info. You probably won't read or respond to this, but if you have not tried one I recommend trying the Spot-Hogg Wise Guy release. Cameron Haynes uses it and once I tried it I fell in love with it. It is all I know I know John Dudley uses a back tension release though and have heard some good things about them.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I always read and respond! Thanks for watching Chad. I'll check out the wise guy, but ive been thinking about making the switch to a thumb release. Cheers.

[@christophertugmon992]

Winn Free Flight release!! Best design ever.

[@mattsoutdoors7757]

Yes the quick fletch is great in a pinch out hunting. I noticed that when I put mine on I had to have the nock off my arrow cause the hot water melted my nocks a little and made them loose and would fall out when I shot. But they are a good product, I keep a pack of them just in case in my pack. I did notice you loosened your wrist strap a little also so it's not too tight. Did that seem to help your left and right since you put it on?

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I haven't noticed that, but it sure is convenient!

[@mattsoutdoors7757]

Yes it is very convenient. I just had to do one the outher day cause when I was at the NWMC I had sumone mess up one of my fletching on my new arrow.

[@cantfoou]

Butter knife tip!!!! I usually hack at it with a razor. Awesome tip. Thanks!

[@davidlinihan3626]

Been shooting quick fletch for years, super easy but durability if it goes through a target isn’t the best. On a different note, I first saw the Tetra in your last video and have since picked one up and I love it

Thanks Allie I’m wondering how durable they are in cold weather. You wouldn’t know that because you’re in the Sunshine State. Thanks for sharing I’m going to start building custom arrows. I use to fletch my own many years ago when all there was were aluminum arrows.

[@markviiimarc2943]

If you or other people are still looking, mine are probably 80-90% as tough as the factory fletchings but go on so dirt easy.

[@garyeverett2717]

How well do they work with a whisker biscuit?

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I haven't tried.

[@darralldougherty5388]

My only concern would be that it doesn't look like the vanes have much of a helical. I guess with mechanicals it may not matter. But with the heads I shoot, the more helical the better. Looks like they hold up well though.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Good to think about. Thanks Darrall.

[@sjeverett75]

My quickfletch should be in tomorrow. Im curious to see how they hold up. Also, a potato peeler works well for removing fletching.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I like that idea!

[@camtackett4011]

Just a heads up! I would recommend taking your nocks out before putting in boiling water. That heats them up a lot and they can bend out of place and end up breaking

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the tip!

[@jacobsmith7088]

U can use D natured Alcohol to clean the arrows really cheap stuff u can get it at Walmart or ace Hardware also I use a scotch brite green pad for removing old glue or fine grit sandpaper just a tip to save a few bucks

Thank you for sharing your tip on using a butter knife. It did as you said it would in getting the job done and not doing any damage. I was given an old vintage PSE USA Spirit and I'm about to Quikfletch some Easton 2018 Gamegetter II arrows. Original fletching are 5 inch but the Quikfletch I got are 2 inch. Do you think it will be a problem with using shorter fletching?

I don't think so. I've never had a problem with them!

They look pretty straight.

Sister, u need to get rid of those fmj arrows. They fine and dandy for target shooting if they don't get bent. But once they do, it's just like a old aluminum arrow, they will hold the distortion and won't fly good. Get a good solid carbon arrow and junk those.

[@hiflyinhawaiin]

Hey!! You're doing a much better job not slapping your trigger. You could still work on using more back tension instead of squeezing with your finger like you do on a firearm. It takes some practice to overcome the mental thought of it being a "trigger" and that's why some people do better switching to a thumb release. But, don't be fooled into thinking that you can't "punch a thumb, hinge or back tension release. The wrist strap isn't the problem. I have a wrist strap on my hinge release. You should watch some videos from rcrchery. Especially the ones on pin float. Your groups will start to tighten up. Keep up the good work!!
