Feather complaints
stringstretcher:
As most of you have a favorite feather, but when using pre-cut feathers, or full lenght from manufacutres, what is your biggest complaint? Are the bases to thick? Are the bases to wide? Etc? What I am asking and seeking is how to grind feathers that would be of the best interest to all or make improvement on whats out there
Pappy:
Haven't use any store bought in a while but when I did ,some were to thick for my liking. :)

George Tsoukalas:
No complaints. I just don't like it when I can't get 2 feathers from 1 full length. Cheap ha? I do grind my own too. Jawge
sailordad:
never used store bought feathers
when i make my own arrows i do it from the ground up
collect the shaft material,straighten the shafts,split feathers that i have gotten off of either roadkill turkeys or ones that i have shot my self or friends had killed.
i only use store bought stuff for my wheelie bow(very seldom these days)
Josh:
I use turkey feathers from turkeys killed by all my turkey-hunting friends, but I also buy the different colored goose feathers for my cock feathers at the different shoots I attend... I am like Jawge though if I can't get at least two fletches from a full length feather I don't like em. :)
