- Perfect arrow flight is the goal for any archer and bow hunter. In this video, I walk you through my simple process for building the most accurate deer hunting arrows humanly possible. The result will be the best arrow for deer hunting because it will fly consistently out of the bow and also get great penetration upon impact. If you are looking to take your archery and bowhunting to the next level, instead of buying prefletched arrows from a bow shop, I highly recommend you watch this video and learn how to build the most accurate arrows possible!

One thing you might consider doing is check the spine of each arrow. Every arrow has a weakest side when bent. If you can determine which side of the arrow is weak, then orient it the same (relative to fletches) on every arrow. That way every shot will come off the bow the same...in other words they'll all oscillate identically.
Spine indexing would be a great addition to this process. I appreciate you suggesting that. Once you incorporate that, I’m not sure it gets any more precise.
Several years ago I started building my own arrows and I couldn’t believe how easy it was and how much more confidence I had shooting knowing that I’d made sure everything was straight and square. I wish I’d started when I was a teenager. For those worried about fletching, that Arizona EZ fletch jig thing is really hard to beat.
Appreciate you recommending the EZ fletch. I've never used it but have been curious to try some others. The Bitz is the only one I've used. I like it just fine but would be nice to be able to fletch multiple at once.
@@NextStepOutdoors I have a Blitz and recently got two EZ fletch jigs. I fletched a dozen arrows in like 20 minutes. With fast setting fletching glue it’s so quick and very easy to use and adjust. The only downside is the extreme helical if you’re shooting long range as I think it can cause parachuting. But I shoot Iron Will wides and the fast helical gets them super stable right out of the bow and they group well even out to 60 yards.
For $60, it’s worth picking one up.
I didn't understand a word you said but if there is a zombie apocalypse I'm coming to Medina

i fletch right, difference at 5 feet is around 1/8th difference. hiting hard targets they dont unscrew
So if you’re using super glue how do you tune your Broadhead ? I always use a hot melte glue so I can tune the Broadhead to my arrow
That is one thing I give up by using glue. I know some people use hotmelt with carbon and some people are super against it for perceived safety concerns. Seems like not many people have issues with the carbon losing structural integrity if the hotmelt/heat is used appropriately.
Let’s Gooooo!

I’m bought my bow used, not even sure if the arrows that came with it fit my draw length let alone how much variance there is between them.
Might be worth checking out if you're having trouble grouping arrows!
@@NextStepOutdoors out to 30 I am within a few inches group wise. 40-50 yards is where it becomes much more varied and I can’t tell if it is me or the arrow
Very cool, love the content. Where are you located
Thanks Ryan, I'm in north central OH! Wbu?
@@NextStepOutdoors central Michigan
I've hunted a good amount around Lansing. Lots of deer and some good ones running around!
Absolutely, I’m about 40 minutes north of lansing just west of Saginaw. Moving to Traverse City in October but I’ll definitely be hunting this season down here
TC is where I was born and raised man!
I've got a few arrows I need to re-fletch. Any feedback on best process?
I'd probably strip any remaining fletchings with one of these amzn.to/45rlD1g and then just start from scratch on that arrow, assuming you have the equipment to do it.
@@NextStepOutdoors I've got the stuff to add the fletching, I wasn't sure the best process for removal, that tool looks pretty ideal.
A razor blade might work fine too. The most important thing is getting all the glue off so the new vane can get a tight bond to the shaft. Good luck!
Soak where you cut the fletchings off in acetone for an hour and then scrub it, glue should come off

What do you think of the heavy arrow fad?
Personally, I think they are overrated. I went down that road and am now going back to a lighter arrow. Speed is important to me.
That's my feeling on it too. I'd rather hit where I'm aiming vs the deer ducking my arrow because it's super slow.
@@TheBowhunter_ProjectI think there’s a balance. Deer will absolutely duck a 320fps arrow if it makes your bow sound like a gunshot. That 450-520 seems to be the sweet spot for whitetails as long as it flies true.
Good point. Speed+quiet would be ideal. I've heard heavier arrows are quieter so I'd still rather be somewhere in the middle like you are talking.
@@TheBowhunter_Project For funsies I shot a 710gr two seasons ago just to see what it was all about. 75lbs and 29” draw and it was like 230fps, but my average shot is under 15 yards. That bow made next to zero noise, and the arrows passed through a block target. I shot a doe at 6 yards front on and it passed complete through, broke 6” of spind and her pelvis got popped in half, and still stuck in a tree behind it.
All that said, 40 yards was just undoable and it basically felt like I was shooting my long bow with sights.
These days I’m at 480gr with 17% FOC and I get 275fps, which I think is ideal.
625 grain is bone breaking.
It's also slow as heck 🐌
