Fletching with banana cuts?

[DXH]

Every photo I have seen of them they are applied straight, is this the best app or do they work just as well when applied helical

[Shedrock]

Mine are helical.

[joe skipp]

Put as much helical as your jig will allow.

[Mike Vines]

I use left wing feathers on a left wing bitzenberg jig then burn my bananas.

[bendbig]

Just as Joe said put as much helical as your jig will allow. I do it this way and have minimum noise from the fletchings.

I mount all my feathers no matter which cut with a helical,RW or LW.The only arrows I use a straight clamp on are some youth arrows like 1514,very a small diameter.

Heavy helical the more the better.

[dnovo]

I do mine just like Ben's. Lots of helical. Ilove the banana cut. I think it looks cool and straightens an arrow out quick.

Now you can't say that you haven't seen a photo of a helical fletched banana cut.

 

[Paul Mattson]

I have never used a straight fletch, only 5" LW helical.
 

[magnus]

I use a slight off set on my 4-4"" banana fletch. On three fletch I've only seen helical.

[m laughlin]

i use as much helical as i can get on any feather cut.
