I used shield cut for years, and then one day I went to the 5 1/2 high back parabolic....not sure why, love them both.
I have always though banana cut was the coolest looking, but have never had a great source for them.

When I do 3 fletch I use shield. When I do 4 fletch I use parabolic.

I shoot 5" shields because that what I have always shot. I like the looks of a low cut banana, but just haven't gotten around to loosing my first two dozen arrows.

5" shield cut because I like the look. Had 4" parabolic before that was quieter but I'll stick with shield cuts from now on I think.

I match them to fit the broadhead but 5" shields are my favorite.

Shields are my favorite at the moment. But I change every now and then.

I like the looks of the shield cut but have parabolic on all my hunting arrows because they seem to be a little quieter. Either case they are all 5" long RW.

I've always used 3-5" shields. I just fletched up a few with 4-4" parbolics and am really liking the way they fly, and they seem to be quieter. I'm gonna play with them some more and might end up running them with 4 fletch for awhile.
