2 vanes one feather
« on: November 10, 2012, 02:05:00 PM »
remember one trad member calling this rainy day arrows, and it got me very interested in learning more, do I have to cut the feather into a lower profile? do the arrows still fly straight? seems to me like a very frugal effective combo to me.
