Thanks guys. It's fun trying the primitive styles of fletchings. They all work well with a little practice. I have been going through back issues and have found 3 different primitive styles so I will play with them to improve my execution of the styles. Pat

NOW i get it. first i thought the feathers (or at least one) were split, so they can form an X, but they're only bent. you tricky devil, you.

Marius, I'm not the tricky one just the plagiarizing one!
I noticed yesterday that if you lay the feather up side down the feathers fold better and give a better 4 fletch appearance and a better fletching effect. Pat

ok, go ahead and confuse me again. what do you mean by "upside down"? or did you mean "inside out"?

Yes, inside out!
Try it up side down and see what happens.

Yep! 2 "Vs"
It took me a while to figure it out after reading the PA article a few times.
This arrow is very quiet in flight despite the tall fletchings. I guess being as short(lengthwise) as it is(3" to 3 1/2") that helps to eliminates the sound and being softer feathers(tail or secondary) helps also.

I've read the article about this fletching style in PA for a while and finally after seeing it posted here recently I went back and reread the article and looked close to the pics and it hit me. I guess I was trying to over think it!
