2 fletch NA style
Tradslinger:
I am no expert on any of this, been shooting bows since the mid 60s but mostly from the 70s on. When done right, a two fletch delivers the goods no problem. I always figured that any game ever taken with them never knew otherwise as did any men. Plus I always look at what distances I mean to shoot anyways and mine have shortened quite a bit over the years as has my draw weight. I kind of like the looks of the two fletch on my cane arrows and have shot a lot of arrows that were missing a feather or two and they shot fine. heck some arrows out of some bows shoot fine on close distances with bare shaft. so maybe big differences are found with poorer arrow to bow matchups?

You're quite right. I wonder though, did the game not taken with them know otherwise? :-\

Fox,
Used 3 and 2 fletch and have seen no difference...I find the "Eastern Two Fletch" mush easier to hand tie with sinew..
Here is my go to fletching...Don't mix right wing vs left wing orientation on the same shaft...When done properly they will spin rapidly and maintain good drag...Notice the small sinew thread in the feathers center holding it to the shaft to keep the buzzing noise out of flight...These are right wing "secondary" feathers, right helo tied with a 90 degree twist gives me speed, good rotation and control...

Thanks for those pictures! I’m definitely going to fletch my next arrows with the two fletch :OK

This is my own personal version of a 2 -fletch and it works very well for my style of shooting. Goose feathers
