Can I fletch carbon arrows with your fletchers?

JoJan Sportsequip Company - Right On Target
Yes. All of our fletchers are equipped to handle carbon arrows. This feature, along with many others, is why JoJan's fletchers are top of the line. Unfortunately, some carbon arrows are just too small to handle the 11 degree per helix that our helical clamps fletch. In order to still get the helical effect, we recommend you fletch with a straight offset. In order to do this, simply use straight clamps and offset them as much as possible so that the vane still sits on the shaft.
