Is there an easy way to clean the blood from feathers after passing through a deer? I had them water proofed and thought the blood would be able to be washed/wiped off but it doesn't seem to be working to well. Do I just refletch the arrows?

Warm soapy water,and you can blow dry the feathers.

I used scent free soap on the two from last year. The stubborn spots took a little hyrdogen peroxide. Rinsed really well, steamed the feathers back into shape, and reused on of them this year.
