pheasant tail feathers for fletching??
medicinewheel:
Right, VERY pricey!
Ps: I'll email the guy and ask for a photo to show you!
Sparrow:
I have used tail feathers and wing primaries from ringnecks,the primaries held up better,especially when trimmed short,still have'nt found better than turkey gobbler wing primaries, male peacock primaries are nice and look really cool.Make a great looking cock feather across from barred turkey.

medicinewheel:
My friend sent me these tow pictures to show you:
first is a Corean arrow with ringneck pheasant pointers as a fletching; the guy says evenso they are soft they work well!
second is an arrow fletched with argus pheasant and Laburnum nock insert; nice, huh??

Sparrow:
I'd like to raise me a penful of them argus just to fletch with them. ' Frank
medicinewheel:
I saw his arrows in real and they looked even better!
One feather makes 3 fletches easily, btw. and the pheasant has many of those; they are backfeathers like a peacock's.
