Fletching (feathers) on arrows tearing?

I recently got a Martin Compound Bow, but every 5 shots or so, the feathers on the arrow comes partly off, or tears off completely. I think it might be the Arrow Rest, but in not sure... and I don't have enough money to replace 8 dollar arrows. Help would be great. Thanks!

It would almost have to be your arrow rest since all Martin bows have a cable off-set on them. The arrow rest would be the only thing that would come in contact with the arrow fletching, unless you are shooting thru a "Wisker-Biscuit" style rest. Unless your fletching was put on with a bad batch of fletching adhesive. If you have a local Archery Pro shop I would take it there and have a Bow Tech take a look at it. I'm sure it's something simple that won't be expensive to fix regardless.......

Here are some great selections for Arrow feathers from eBay!
