Greetings All,

Was curious to your experiences with these fletches...have some arrows to build and thought about using them.

Thanks in advance, Jason

Excellent fletch. I've been through a couple hundred with no problems. Not to mention a great price.

I am on the fence. I bought a bunch a few years ago. Was initially very happy. Durability seemed questionable after a just a few weeks. I remember finding a possible answer that pointed away from the feathers, but don't remember what it was an haven't revisited them.

I have hundreds of naturals so I don't use commercial a lot.

They are good. But they are no where near as good as Sagitariuis

I use them for my 4"& 5" and they are very good, the bases are much more consistent than the Gateways that I use for 2.5" Shield which I have to clamp up and sand to get that same consistency.

They are as good as any other in my opinion and better than some others. Good bases and reasonable in price. That said, I have never found any really crappy turkey feathers. As for lasting, I usually lose them first.

I ordered them once. The colors were good as was the grind. Upon close inpection though the arrows sent to me by kk had some travelers--- i saw the tiny pin holes indicating that the feathers were bug infested. Just my experience with them.

I like them a lot they work good wide bases and uniform in size .

Got some from Kustom King...the only reason I bought Bearpaw was because I was making some arrows for a friend that is a fan of the New York Dodgers, and Bearpaw was the only one that had the right kind of "Dodger Blue" that she likes...they were ok

They were good feathers when i tried them. Good color and perfectly ground quill. My only complaint is i could only get 1 4 1/2" cut per feather, they seemed kinda short compared to others ive used.
