Noisy arrow

<< < (2/3) > >>

Hickoryswitch:
Thanks everyone. The feathers look sorta like a pope and young. I trimmed them by hand and tha was just the shape they came out. As long as they won't cause a problem I just won't worry about the noise.       

     Thanks

Hillbilly:
Like Pat said, if you have that point on the back, they hiss. 3/4" is pretty tall, too. I like hissing arrows myself, though-just like the sound of them.

cracker:
I just read everyones opinions and it seem a general agrreemet that long featers towards the nock make noise.This raises the question would a banana cut be quieter since the feathers near the nocks would be shorter?R.C.

Hillbilly:
Cracker, yep-I just don't like the looks of 'nanner cut feathers myself, and they aren't great at steering broadheads.The shield cut is a good compromise. The swallowtail point on the back is what usually causes a lot of the noise.

sailordad:
yup but they sound so coooool 8) 8)

i love the sound,nothing better than hearing that "phffffffffffttttt" sound when an arrow is in flight.
