I guess I am not the only one that gets all particular about flecthing...

Lately I've been using 4 fletch with custom 3 and 1/8th inch modified shield.

I really like white feathers, or combined with something else bright.

I like my shields,  I like a lot of feather and shape my ribbon to burn them that way.

Low profile nanners from Magnus are my favorite.  Deadly quiet, and they last cuz they're turkey tough.....and if you shoot groups, they don't catch on each other and sustain damage.

Next time I will get one orange and one yellow or one chartreuse and one pink. Or maybe yellow barred! Either way I like 4" parabolic and shield cut, doesn't make much difference what shape to me.
