Fletching Only Better (FOB) Review & Demo

[@Ur_fav_brunette_Stacy]

Can these be used on a recurve bow? It seems like there would be clearance issues.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

They will not clear the shelf.

[@AntlerAssassinTakovich]

Although I thought these were junk. I do keep a few in my bag on extended trips. If I clip a vane or arrow isn’t flying right I can rip the other two off and slide a FOB on. They’re good for in a pinch, not much beyond that IMO. 🤘🏻🏹

Why is that ?

[@zacharyfelkel1970]

Agreed I got two packs and I’d throw them in the trash before I’d give them away! They’re fun just to shoot and play with but for hunting or target shooting standard fletching is better. They tend to be hard to shoot for starters because of the anchor point. They are trash and a waste of money

@@lynnbowers4704 I didn't like them because they're quite a bit louder than standard fletched arrows and like mentioned they can get in the way of your anchor point. They're good for if you're in a pinch though.

[@theamazinggoldfish8713]

Allie suggestion, I believe you could drimel out the end to slide up an inch, and secure with a spot of rubber cement glue. This should take away face touch/pop off issues. (2) If you have the green have you tested it under the black light? My mossy oak nocks reflect the uv light from flashlight at night from 15 yards. I have ordered some FOBs and will test soon. I just finished painting on my bow, love it! It's only for target practice and was only $80 anyway. Shortly to get single pin sight, drop away, and range finder. Rhineheart calls!

[@davidmorgan2959]

When I first started shooting a compound bow I bought FOBs for the simple reason that you can break 2 sections of the ring and they will still fly straight. Just get a wave in a vain and see how your arrows flys

“Vane” ?

[@nospam3409]

First of all, excellent follow through! Well done. As far as FOB, you really need to compare it at distance with some wind and some fixed blades in order to know how they compare to vanes and fletching.

Allie ..I’m impressed with your presentation, articulation, ability to communicate with your followers etc . I really liked your video on cutting up a deers rear leg quarter..It’s a chore getting by the silver skin. I have a little knowledge in archery like I’ve been shooting since I’ve been 10 years old. Now that I’m 87 I look 👀 back at past state, regional and national Championships of which I’ve won … Instinctive, 3 fingers under , then compound and presently my crossbow.With over 💯 whitetail deer harvested.. I have shot with World class champion Ann Weber Hoyt and Howard Hill..I’ve been an Olympic Archery Coach and it’s time for a few suggestions for you ..Your release is flawless…but… no way use a kisser button unless you weren’t using a release which is causing your draw length to be longer .. With the kisser button on it allows you to touch your nose ..and now you can see the complete alignment of your shaft with the bullseye which is critical.. nuff said for me except I retired from the vertical bow at 17 Robin Hood’s .. To do it over I would have stayed with traditional 🏹 archery .. If I may say in passing by..””YOUR CUTE “”P.S.- Please be careful when sliding your hand back/forth on your carbon shaft if it’s fractured.. Your aware of splinters, right ?

Nice review. As far as the bow string touching the FOB on longer a2a setups, can you slide the FOB up the arrow shaft further?

No, it has a stopper. Thanks for watching Jeff!

[@marcialp93]

I have a dozen and haven't had any problems with em. The thingsI've noticed is at longer distances they drop a bit more then my 4 fletch and might change your anchor point because the Fob sits so far back.. at least further back from my AAE vanes. Definitely like the simplicity. Can't group shoot em but that's not a problem. Yes they've been out for a long time now but just recently started to pop off again. 👍🏽👍🏽. One thing for sure is they definitely buck the wind like a champ. Put em out to 80-105 yards in high crosswinds and didn't have any problems... Great review and keep em coming....

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Good to know, thanks Mike!

[@johnwhite3218]

I'd imagine shorting the draw and a longer loop would help get it off your face using your thumb knuckle as the anchor point

[@minjin0259]

For someone not wanting to do a wholesale change over, these would be a great addition to a hunting pack in the event that you loose a fletching while out in the field and you don't have the ability to re-fletch the arrow out in the field. You could remove the other fletchings and install one of these to get you back to a full quiver until you get home.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Very good point.

[@davidlinihan3626]

I’ve seen them. Only change I’ve made in fletching is to the 2” ones. They seem to be quieter. They are interesting. If I can pick up a few without buying a dozen I’ll give them a try.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Good feedback. Thanks David!

[@AZPPG]

Nice Review. I have been shooting FOB's for years and still shoot fletched arrows and FOBS. One thing you didn't mention is they are great for traveling. Package all the FOBs up and don't have to worry about bent fletches after cramming your case full. When I shot a deer the FOB fell off and marked exactly where she was standing and made an easy pass through with a bare shaft ! Defiantly worth having in the tool kit !

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Valid point. Thanks Rich!

[@tyronekim3506]

How does the FOB not hit any part of the bow when the arrow is released? It seems the FOB would, at least, hit or touch the arrow rest and then break off.

[@mugsysoutdoors5352]

Try a bare shaft @20yards along side of the FOB that will tell you if its is stabilizing your arrow better then your fletched shafts! Also try it with some BHs

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Good idea!

[@mugsysoutdoors5352]

You might want to try your bareshaft @10yards first tho to be safe! The bare shaft is going to tell you well your bow and arrow build are tuned!

[@nicholasst5752]

How would this work for hunting? Does it just pop off when entering the animal or would it stay on the arrow and not allow the arrow to pass through?

[@OutdoorsAllie]

It pops off.

[@HondoTrailside]

If you are worried about the string angle, face, or arrow loss problem, you could simply slide FOB on the arrow, and put a small piece of shrink tube behind it to hold it forward a bit. NTE electronics makes shrink tubing that has adhesive on the inside, a 3-1 shrink ratio, and can be purchased from Amazon. I can't say whether it would work for this, but It should. However, if it doesn't pop off the arrow, you may not get a pass through. Though with turkey that can be a plus.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thats an interesting concept. Thanks for the idea!

Hi! I’ve been watching your videos and am new to archery. What is the little green thing dangling from your belt loop? I’ve seen you with it before and it’s making me so curious!

[@marcdenis6466]

What happens to my $10 lighted nock when the FOB fletched arrow passes through Bambi and the FOB detaches and strips away the nock?

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Not positive. Good question, I'll test!

[@Gsxr11000306]

Both the FOB and nock come off the arrow at the same time on a pass-through. Best advice I can give Allie is to loosen up the nock when installing the FOB by turning it in the arrow shafts to wear down the little ribs on the nock. You want the nock to be a little easier to slip out of the arrow than your standard first time insertion nock. There are other videos as well showing how to make an arrow tracker for when the FOB pops off. Great review! I used to shoot groups with the FOBs and even attend 3D shoots as well. Lots of people don't like shooting at my arrows when they're in the target for fear of breaking the FOB, but I alway told them fire away. Even when the ring breaks, they still fly just as accurate.

[@SoberNomad]

My first question when I saw them on your arrow was the pass-through situation. Popping off seems somewhat unlikely to me, plus seems like a big disadvantage. What’s wrong with traditional fletching? I can’t see why this “upgrade” is helpful or necessary.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Just a cool idea! Haven't used it to hunt.

[@ericwiitala5407]

Great video and I was thinking about those really for 1 reason. I hunt CO... It's ALWAYS windy. I'm assuming that in 10 years, they improved the product. I'm really 50/50 on whether I want it to pop off on a pass through. I use lighted knocks and can see them clear as day hitting (or missing) my target also in recovery of my arrow. Shot a deer with my lighted knock at 50 yards quartering away a tad. Arrow went through and just barely hung in the far side of the deer. Deer took 2 jumps, arrow came out. Had a perfect line of where I shot the deer and where it ran due to I could see the arrow. Picked up a straight blood trail and got my deer. So, I don't know..??

[@OutdoorsAllie]

How would they clear your rest without smacking into it.. With veins you can clear your rest by adjusting your knock .

Ralph C it clears fine. If you’re using a WB then you can’t use these. Obviously

[@truebuldog]

@@AntlerAssassinTakovich I would have to assume WB is a wisker biscuit rest. Do people really use them? Lol They must really, both slow your arrow down and cause inconsistent arrow flight. Neither sounds good to me. If you read my first comment better you would have read I was mentioning turning the knock to get vein clearance. WBs don't clear your veins. You shot through them. So obviously I wasn't talking about them. Or that. And of course the only option someone would have is a drop rest. ( with those new things) Not everyone shoots a drop rest. And there was no mention of having to use one in the video. That was my point. Some how it Obviously got past you.... Lol

[@AntlerAssassinTakovich]

Ralph C wow dude. Why so defensive?. No I didn’t see your other comment... I was just trying to answer your question. Seeing it didn’t look as though anyone else did. I don’t however use a WB. But yes MANY ppl do. My comment wasn’t meant to sound sarcastic if that’s how you took it

[@HondoTrailside]

@@AntlerAssassinTakovich +1 I never have but it is hands down the favourite rest of folks who do not want the clutter and expense of drop aways, yet want to shoot large fletchings and carbons. Carbons wreaked the usability of large fletches out of compounds with conventional rests. This became critical at the high speeds that compounds where being driven to that all could enjoy once the weaknesses of early systems had been overcome, such as magnisium riser, cables, out of tune cams. And everyone moving to release aids. And the market was driven to what had early had always been regarded as joke technologies like drop away rests and mechanicals. At the time, Chuck was the big name: he shot figers, feather, long ATA, aluminums, etc...

[@truebuldog]

@@AntlerAssassinTakovich if I sounded defensive it was because you didn't read my comment and replied on it . Not reading it made your comment sound rediculous to me. Ending it with " obviously" sounded sarcastic to me. So I replied . Really no biggie to me.

I had never heard of this product before...but I definitely find it intriguing. Take care guys...God bless you....curt P.s. are you guys gonna put some fresh pork in the freezer. I know Florida is over run with piggies....

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Intriguing for sure. Its turkey time!

[@jamessonger3]

I love your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thank you!

[@d-arts7139]

im wondering if the deer are more likely to see them with longer shots. as opposed to fletching. as well as your other concerns. great presentation though alie. the pup so big!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

No sure about that, interesting thought though. Thanks for watching!

[@joeditz48]

Deer don't perceive color like us, however their eyes are way better at seeing movement. Color will have no impact. I think it was someone on buck commander that went bowhunting in a full Santa suit and arrowed a doe at 15 yards

[@d-arts7139]

@@joeditz48 i wasnt referring to the color. im talking about its mass, and with a longer shot, and extra time in the air, if deer might have a longer time to see it coming at them. just curious

[@joeditz48]

d s very unlikely will be any difference from veins. Deer mostly react to the sound of a bow going off, not seeing the arrow.

[@paulbickley658]

Yeah, but what if the arrow goes through the deer like most do?

[@OutdoorsAllie]

The FOB pops off

[@eugeneconner6934]

Enjoyed the review. I had seen them before , never seen anyone shoot them .they seem to shoot really well but concerning the pass-through shot and finding your arrow would be my greatest concern. but I will say this... I like the name.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

No doubt! Thanks Eugene!

[@fobarchery2768]

Eugene, as long as your nocks aren’t extremely tight, pass through is not an issue. Actually there is less resistance during pass through since the arrow is bare after the FOB pops off. As far as finding your arrow most guys and gals use fluorescent or reflectice arrow wraps.

[@billeldridge3771]

If you dont mind them falling off every shot. They are also noisy and suck in the wind.

[@jamespence48]

Raytheon engineers designed them. I got my trial ones from one of the engineers years ago.

[@allenshepard7992]

Thanks for the review. I'd expect more stabilization and flight time. Arrow slowing down faster due to round air foil but then flying longer due to aerodynamic lift. Please do a side by side and check field point depth as a guide on how much energy was left in the arrow.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I like that idea. Thanks Allen!

[@MarkMphonoman]

Very interesting product and maybe fun to try, but they don’t seem too practical for regular use. Also, I guess you can’t shoot them with a traditional wood bow. Anyway, as usual, love your video. Well done. Mark 👍🙂

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Definitely cant use them with a trad bow. Thanks for watching Mark!

[@petrokemikal]

After I watched some video where a dude ripped one of these fobs apart and it kept shooting well decided to pass on these.. I think he was trying to highlight the selling point that they can get very badly damaged and still fly great,but in reality to me it just proved that the shape and so on has actually nothing to do with how well an arrow flys..

[@chrisgonzalez4119]

Awesome review very informative ...I like the honesty

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching Chris!

[@timberg7377]

I tried these, when they first came out, I loved them until I started shooting at long range with broadheads.. I couldn't get them to group.. Maybe they changed things.

[@getplenny]

I find they make grouping broadheads easier personally

[@darrylscheid3767]

I have shot them out past 100yards and fly great
