I had some broken arrows that had fletch taped feathers that I used for tree stakes. After 4 years of MI elements (hot summers/cold snowy winters), the feathers were still hanging on for dear life. Probably still be there had I not run over them with the lawn tractor.
If you prep the arrow and make sure that you have good contact between feather and shaft (I run the back edge of my taping scissors down the feather after it is in place), you should never see that problem.
Tape is so good that with a decent "eye" and a fairly steady hand, you don't even need a jig.
