I was using 3 4" parabolics RW, but am going to try 3 5" shields LW to try feather-to-nose anchor and see if I like it.

3 x 5" left wing helical. Custom chopped that is basically a 5 1/2" parabolic cut 90 degrees at 5".Looks pretty close to the Fred Bear chop that was on a thread.

4X4" lw parabolic or shield for me. Haven't noticed any difference in flight or noise between the two shapes.

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

I really like the look of a 3x4' P&Y cut.
To me, it has a real nod to the traditional side

I use 5" parabolic cuts right wing for all my arrows. I find that this gives me great stabilization even in the worst of conditions, or on a bad release. The parabolic for me is just a little quieter than shield cut which is my second choice.

4" Parabolic right wing, 1 Yellow & 2 white - Why? - well, that's just what I have always used. I used to use 5" parabolic but when i worked up a high FOC arrow (22.7%) I went down to the 4" and have been that way for quite some time.
