General Arrow Questions from a Newbie

[Grant Sutherland]

I'll preface this with: I'm very new to Archery and have been hooked since my first draw.

That being said,I'm looking at getting into making a dozen arrows for myself (pride in having made them).  I've already gotten everything I need but have some questions as to left / right wing feathers.

Is it possible to put left wing feathers (all three) into a right wing jig?  In my haste and misguided enthusiasm I purchased left wing feathers instead of right.  I want to use them but don't know if it will affect the flight of the arrow.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I would advise against it, especially if the clamp is helical. If it were straight you could use either wing feathers. Generally LW feathers for a LW clamp, RW for Rw clamp.
You can trade them here for RW, just check the classifieds under arrow making. Hope this helps. And expect to bemaking more after this...it is addictive.

That's what I figured.  Thanks!
