Has anyone had trouble with arrow wraps. 1st problem= the fletchings don't seem to stick very well. 2nd problem= the ones i have done the field points fly fine the broadheads not so good 

The only reason I wanted to try the wraps is the extra visiblity seeing your arrow but after the problems I've been having i'm about ready to take the darn things off! 


I'm shooting a Reflex bow at 60#, whisker bisquit, G5 montec broadheads 100gr.(field points also 100 gr.), easton axis st carbon arrows 400's

If any additional info is needed to help me i'll be glad to give it to ya! Thanks in advance

I've had the fletchings not stick well to them but that was because they didn't put the right glue on them. But I don't really see how they would make your arrows fly very different at all. I would think it would be more of a fletching issue than a wrap problem. maybe they have a different pitch to them when they re-fletched them and they aren't tuned to your broadheads?

here is an option for you.
fletch the arrow first then cut the wrap to go around the fletch,by this i mean a strip before and after the fletch.
this can be helpful when you need to refletch.
the wrap won't get ruined.
if this is no good for you use the glue inhibitor before you glue the fletch on.
bohning works the best for me.

thwack is the only sound i want to hear from sept to feb!!!

I have never used wraps before so I can not help you with them. However, if your goal of the wraps is to see your arrow better try using a Lumenok instead of the wrap.
