Got a sweet deal on 2dz arrows by having my buddy grab them at a sportsman show. Guess they were packed so tightly together that all the fletchings are curved. So far, hot water, blow dryer, and hair straightener have failed. Have 2 arrows in garage now hanging with a wood clamp to a single fletching. Think that's gonna fail too

A blow dryer will usually work. Trick is you have to hold it so the air is hitting it straight on from the front or rear so the fletch starts fluttering.

I'll try that one day. Did a dz with steam, hoping they keep straight.

I don't mean to insult your intelligence but make sure they're not helical vanes! I really was not familiar with them until the past year or so.
