Fletching size..

Coo-wah-chobee:
                 6" to 7" single fletch.

possum:
mine are 5" long after wrapping.  This time anyway.  I usually just wing it but these latest ones I actually measured after I bareshafted the shafts.  Well, OK, one arrow anyway. ::)  I still need to bareshaft the rest then fletch those.  I really need to kill a deer so I can get more back sinew.   :-\But my profile is starting to evolve into a high back tapering to the front... cut with scissors until I convert my heat gun into a feather burner.

heat gun into a feather burner??????   what??? how????

cromm,
    i have been using 5 " parabolic... when i started to build my own cuase i bought them befor i knew anything and they work good for me but i just got a few 5 1/2" high back sheild cuts...

looking forward to try those out but i need some shafts...
 
  i have been told that most people who shoot seriously use the 5 1/2" highback shields... heard they drag a little bit more but are way more accurate...   but that just what i have been told... so dont know by experaince yet!!! 

   i was also told that,  thats what most poeple use when they compete in traditional competition.. but i have yet to go to a comp soo once agian dont know fom experaince or from seeing for my self...   but thats what i was told...


 

JackCrafty:
I like Native American style fletching.  Here's some I've made. They range from 7" to 8-1/2" long.

Sorry, I meant soldering gun.  El Destructo, I believe, posted a pic of his.
