ac777 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Ordered some FOB's (Fleching only Better) today. We'll wee how well they work and if they live up to the hype of there HSOforum. They look like they will. Anyone else try these? I know Deitz said he was using them ths year, how do you like them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deitz Dittrich Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I have been very impressed so far. I have yet to put an arrow through a deer, but I hope to change that soon. I got black ones first, and re-ordered lime green and also ordered glow in the dark stickers for them.I still cant get over how they look, but they fly very nice.

crazyice Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I can't imagine that they would work with every setup. I had never heard of them so I went to their HSOforum, sounds like a great idea, but what happens to guys like me who shoot a whisker biscuit? I would think that the thing would fall off just like they demonstrated in one of the videos on a pass through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisT Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 There are still people using those biscuit things huh. Just kidding of course, you need to have a drop away style rest and not all of those work because it does require a fair amount of clearance. They shoot well and I think they would work great for hunting. Good luck and I want to hear what your opinion is when you get a chance to shoot them.

Deitz Dittrich Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Crazy ice.. You are correct, You must shoot a fall away rest to have the FOB work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyice Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Guess I'll just stick to my AAE fletching then. I wouldn't trade that wisker biscuit for any other kind of rest. I think that it has helped my shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstroke Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I've got some too and they shoot great. I won't be hunting with them this fall, but I plan on using them in the spring for turkeys and hopefully next year I will have separate arrows dedicated to Fob'n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deitz Dittrich Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 took me about the same time, 4 days.. If you havn't recieved them yet, I would call or email them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ac777 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 Shot My fobs today, They seem to be shooting well, One thing I noticed when shooting broadheads they actually twist into the target, you can feel it when you pull it out, much more than with the vanes I was shooting. Grouped 2 tight enough to pop one of the Fobs off kinda cool to watch those things just pop off like that. We will see, going to shoot some more with them before I make the all out change but so far so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Glad you got them.. and it sounds like they are doing their job... now stop shooting groups or it will get expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HootTooten Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Goodnews! I got them today! Man they are small. I already have 4 of them set up and will be going right to the field today after work to try them out. One thing about the cust. service at StarrFlight, they are sure quick to reply to emails. It is nice to answers to questions from companies that quickly. A breath of fresh air as they say.I hope I get the same grouping "problem" ac777 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
