Thank you for the awesome tutorial! Your instructions are concise and easy to follow. They’re even easy to remember.🤠

I like these two minute tips. A bunch of short videos detailing a specific part of bow maintenance (with a clear title!) is good because sometimes I'm further into a certain process and don't need a full 20 minute explanation on it. Just my two cents..

Brilliant, simple, and easy to remember!! Also, I appreciate you not dragging out this video!!!

Thank you. Its a good idea for aligning 3 blade broadhead with the vanes.

Great idea for alignment. I'll need to reheat the insert, align, and re-glue. I become a tad obsessive when we get closer to fall and weight all my arrows and broadheads - matching them up to decrease the weight variance from arrow to arrow - thanks!

You can also use a small o-ring between the insert and broadhead. Tighten it up and line them up way.

Question. Do you need to do this for each broad head to arrow. Assuming the same broad head is used I don’t imagine that each broad head will locate exactly the same. Thanks

Nice tip-- ran across it a week too late (just built a set of arrows and used permanent glue on the inserts)

[marioorellana]

How much glue should I use and where should I put it

[toddhatten]

So if you shot a four blade head you need four fletching?

[andrewwolflethecatfishmast]

What about arrows with the inserts already glued in?

[ZGADOW]

Sharpie ink won't stick to some inserts/shafts. Try cutting super thin strips of masking tape with scissors if you have that issue; it worked for me.

[hookerallison]

Would you recommend numbering the broadhead along with arrow? For instance broadhead 1, 2 and 3. Arrow 1, 2 and 3 or should the same name broadhead align the same way? Just don't want to mess up expensive arrows lol. The cutting method worked flawlessly and am very satisfied with the results. Thankyou for the tips

How do I know what inserts to buy for this cross bow bolt? Barnett 16075 Outdoors Carbon Crossbow 20-Inch Arrows with Field Points (5 Pack), Black. I am shooting a magnus stinger 2 blade and read it should be lined up with the cock vane (LOL) but I will be damned if I can make that happen...smh
