Default Cost of arrow fletching

As title states, what's the cost of getting about half dozen arrows re fletched if I take it to a shop? Is it cheaper than buying new arrows?

Should be that much to refletch 1/2 doz. arrows. I wouldn't think it would be more than a couple of bucks..
Call one of the archery stores and ask..

If you want to fletch them yourself you could try the quickfletch set up that you can buy at most shops.

I tried them out and so far they have been fine for me.

Git-r-done sells a good fletching jig for $30.00. I have 12 of them set up on a board. They work great. My Grand Daughter was fletching her arrows by herself when she was 5 years old. It isn't hard.
Buy your fletches by the hundred, they are cheap.

Default Quickfletch

Quickfletch is the way to get. Boil a pot of water and start fetching. I use them for all of my arrows and haven't had 1 issue. Holds true out to 130 yards for me.

Try and go with a re-fletch before all new arrows you will save lots of money.

You may want to take a look at the Starrflight F.O.B. Quick and easy to replace and can be done in the field in seconds and is transferable from arrow to arrow. They also shoot very well if damaged perfect for those gofer hunts.

Ill second the quick fletch, I think they're around 15-20$ for 1/2 dozen. They're super easy to put on and hold up very well. I tried the quick spins on my blue streaks and they seem to even fly a little better. Good luck
