Here is some that I made up to look like old Bear arrows using turkey feathers.

Those are sweet Onestringer! Love the combo and cock feather.

Nothing fancy.  I ground and cut them with homemade jigs.

Here are a few of mine. Most are tied on. Some regular 3 fletch, some Cherokee style 2 fletch and some my version of a 2 fletch. The last pic has one goose feather fletch in a 3 feather tangential style.

Congrats on some really nice work fellas.  Onestringer, that is some outstanding splicing!    :thumbsup:  

I just finished these up. Used some Rit dye "Scarlet" for the red as I wanted a deep color red. It works nicely but you have to be very careful of it smearing on the finish dip as evidenced on some of the white areas under the feathers. Next time I know just how to handle it.

Those are awesome Jeff! I learned how to do that today. Now I'll be busy straightening and scrapeing.
