![]() use whole uncut white feathers for the two hen feathers and a homemade c0ck feather. I found 7 good looking specimens (one is a spare) ![]() split them to get rid of the side that I won’t need. ![]() find the best section in the middle of the length and cut off the ends ![]() Because the split base is way to thick I need to thin them down. ![]() use a belt sander with a fine grit belt because the bases are pretty soft. finish them with a sanding block ![]() The thinned feather is a lot less beefy. ![]() Next cut them to their finished length. ![]() After fletching, use a feather burner to give them their shape ![]() ![]() |

Looks to good to shoot, taking a animal with one of those will be especially rewarding. Show us the pics when you connect with one. |

That is sooooo cool. Who would have thought, feathers on the back of an arrow. Do they work well? |

Very cool, wish I had the time it would take. I think I'd be afraid to get them all red.
