If you shoot right handed, left wing feathers are the best. People say it doesn't matter but you will never see a serious right hand tournament shooter shooting arrows fletched with right wing feathers. This should tell you something. Leftys generally shoot right wing feathers.

There are a lot of variations in opinion.

Fletching tape is fine and quick to apply.

I personally use right wing feathers on carbon. They fly great. I use 5" shield cut. I have not used fletch tape, so I cant comment. I use goat tuff glue on the carbons and it works good. Its easy to scrape off when you damage one.  :thumbsup:

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.
