The point is bone...sinew wrapped nock, feathers and point, then black leather dye on the sinew.
The tail feathers are softer than wings, but I will practice with a couple and use some exclusively for hunting.

Nice work raghorn.  I get excited just thinking about watching that arrow fly!

Those are some of the prettiest arrows I've ever seen. Absolutely love them.

I thought I'd give this style a try last year. I will never fletch another way now. Mine fly better than any 3 fletch I have, they're quieter, and better looking IMO.

Those are some great looking arrows. I've only done a handful using tail feathers (Mine don't look as good as yours),  but with wing feathers the 2 fletch arrows I've made fly as good as any of my other arrows.

I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

Two fletch is the way to go for me.  The economy of it appeals to me.  I can fletch more arrows with fewer feathers, so it is a no brainer for a cheap skate like me.  I can't tell the difference in the accuracy, but then I don't shoot much further than twenty yards.  Those are great looking arrows.  Turkey tail feathers are beautiful.
