ABSTRACT:
A removable fletch, system utilizing the fletch, method of installing the fletch, and kit comprising the fletch and an installation jig. The fletch comprises a feather member extending from a mounting body in a first direction, and one or more locating pins and a locking pin extend from the mounting body in a second direction. The locating pins are insertable within holes disposed in the wall of a hollow-shafted archery arrow. The locating pins define angled engagement notches that contact the inner surface of the arrow body such that translation of the fletch with respect to the arrow body causes the fletch to be pulled tightly against the arrow body. The locking pin may be snapped into a corresponding hole within the arrow wall, thereby fixing the fletch to the arrow body. An installation drill jig may be used to drill holes within the arrow wall corresponding to the locating and locking pins of the fletch.
