help with 2 fletch arrows pls
sonny:
pretty sure those are left wing. in that 1st pic see how the bottom is frayed, giving me the impression that they were dragged along the ground...
can't help with two fletch as I've never done it.
Hillbilly:
Those are left-wing feathers. Imagine them on an outstretched wing. I would have stripped the other side and helicaled them in the opposite direction.

Thanks steve.
Was hoping that was right as that is exactly what I ended up doing.
Flew great least in my basement at 10 yds. will try them at longer dist tomorrow and post some finished pics.
thanks again.

n2everythg:
Still doesnt seem like I have it quite right.
Check out these pics pls and let me know what you think. Any changes needed before I complete more arrows?
Too dark to shoot them right now Tomorrow will try them out and see how they fly.
thanks
wade

By George, I think you've got it. 8) I had to play around with different feathers and twists before I found the one that flew best for me. I ended up cutting the fletching closer to the quill to eliminate the feather noise, not that there is anything wrong with it. ;D It was for my satisfaction.
You might want to add a bit more wrap around the shaft below your point. That area takes a lot of abuse when it hits something. Pat
