vario chopper, 4" lo pro, or a modded li'l chopper banana

also what broadhead do you use?

woodsman or vpa terminator - 350 to 400 grains up front total - imo, efoc helps lots to get the arrow to track quicker coming outta the paradox

i use 5" shield w/el grand heads and i was thinking of trying banana i looked at choppers but they cut such long feathers.i own a burner so i could burn em.

i've burnt lo pro nanners.  easier to chop.  get yerself a li'l chopper 5" banana jig and mod it as shown  HERE  ...

In the late 60s I shot 3 fletch, 4" but a little higher than a normal feather today.  It stabilized a Bear Razorhead just fine.  They were burned also.
