thanks aznboi, I can't wait to try some 2 fletch and see how they fly..

Hillbilly:
Two-fletch fly well with broadheads if they're done right. The Eastern Woodlands style two-fletch works great with broadheads or stone points. I don't know about just sticking two low-cut banana fletches on there opposite each other, though, I wouldn't trust it myself. Might work if you put enough helical on them. You need a two-fletch style that was designed for two feathers, not just leaving  a feather out on a normal fletch.

n2huntn:
I was planning on fletching along the lines of a post by dustybaer and a few others who had tried two fletch of different length and shape. Just haven't seen anyone try it with heads.

 What is a normal two fletch style other than opposite each other? Thanks for the replys.

Hillbilly:
The best two-fletch style that I have tried is the Eastern Woodlands fletch that was used by most of the eastern Indian tribes. It consists of two whole feathers that are partially peeled on one side, fastened tangentially. It is a very stable fletch for field points or broadheads either one. It flies much better for me than a couple of split feathers glued opposite each other, especially when you have a broadhead on the front.

n2huntn:
 I tried one done that way. It did fly well with an old Bear head but was noisy. Maybe I didn't do it right. Might need to pull the feathers tighter so there's no gap between feather and shaft.
Thanks,
Jeff
