Turkeys seam to be the best, crows, goose, pheasant and numerous others have been used. Google it! You will get hundreds of thousands hits. Pea-Fowl feathers are good too, stick with turkey feathers though! Shawn

What's best for bushy tails is a woods full of oaks, hickories, walnuts, wild grapes and no hunters.

I carry Magnus blunts and Ace hex heads for trying to kill them, though.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

My favorite quarry! I get to shoot alot and clean 'em..very seldomly. I used to use a 3 feathered flu-flu but over the years I've learned to enjoy the silence of a regular-feathered arrow. Sure, I hate to loose any of my arrows but I'm not planning to miss.   :knothead:  The little squirrels apparently don't mind a quiet swish of a miss either compared to the SWOOSH of a flu-flu. Anywho-save me a few!
