FAQ

- Is there any speed loss?

Yes, compared to 4" vanes, there is a small speed loss of 3 - 5 fps measured at the bow with the 4" vane fletched arrow at 300 fps. This difference remains consistent downrange with the difference never exceeding 8 fps out to 50 yards.

- Is there more noise with the Fletch App?

The noise level is comparable to that of a 4" vane fletched arrow. Listen for yourself - The following two sound recordings were taken 40 yards downrange from the bow, with a target 10 yards behind the recording device.

Fletch App:

- What happens when you're shooting groups and another arrow hits a Fletch App?

While not indestructable by any means, the Fletch App has proven to be very durable in this regard. It usually takes a direct impact from an arrow point to render the Fletch App unusable. And, if it is damaged, it takes only seconds to replace and have that arrow back in action. As always, check your arrow shafts for cracks and other damage before shooting.


Notes:

- All components of the Fletch App are currently made by 3D printing. The appearence and texture are different from conventional manufacturing processes due to the layered nature of 3D printing.

- While the Fletch App is made to withstand pass-thru shots, the press-on design can only withstand so many. Depending on variables such as shaft surface finish and the shaft diameter relative to the OD range, after 3 - 5 pass-thru shots, you may notice the Fletch App body sliding forward on the shaft while target shooting. This is normal but will continue to worsen the more you shoot. You can either replace the body, or add a drop of cyanoacrylate adhesive to the leading edge of the body where it meets the shaft.
