Arrow Cost Math..

[LiftAndShoot]

Hey guys,

So I've been following some of the other arrow threads (after re-reading my own), and I fished out all the gear I have. Turns out, I have 10 serviceable arrows - Easton Axis ST's. They're 9.4 gpi and currently 27.5". That's too long, and some of them (most of them) need fletching work. So, to get them all cut and re-fletched, before inserts or the replacement fletchings and nocks (because there are two different types), it'd probably cost me about 50 or 60 bucks.

Currently, I don't know how LONG I need my arrows, but my question is; what's the consensus? Should I have the arrows worked on, or just buy new and be done with it?

you cant buy 10 new arrows for 50-60$ i dont think

Leave inserts and cut vane end, refletch. Then kill something...

Buy yourself a fetching kit. It's a great time passer while watching TV or just need something to do

If you get them cut.....you will more than likely need to refletch anyways. Best I remember the Axis arrows have the Hidden Inserts. Kind of a pain to pull those out without damaging the arrow, so you would need to cut the arrow from the rear, so the fletchings will be gone.

Be cheaper for 10 arrows to refletch yourself with a jig

Where are u at? I have all the stuff to cut and fletch, as well as a paper tuner. We could work something out. I'm south of Houston.

When I cut my own new arrows I typically cut equal amounts off each end then build. You won't have any issues at all cutting the vane/nock end and refletch.

That's what I was thinking. Some of them don't have inserts, some have different nocks. So the cost I listed was basically just a labor cost. New vanes, inserts, and nocks haven't been factored in yet.
