They can be used for smaller fletch, but they will not be as durable as primaries. Probably not a big deal if using carbon/alum because they are easier to strip and refletch.

Defiant, the secondaries I have used have all been noisy in flight, otherwise fine. I wouldn't use them for hunting arrows, but they're great for practice if you don't mind the noise. Also, a jake's primaries are noisy, too. The primaries need to come from a mature bird.

I've seen arrows crested with snake skin before but how is it done properly?
