wheres the best place to purchase full length feathers.am having a problems finding some thats not going to get divorced.70 dollars for 100..any suggestions....
Hmmmmm... you could search the woods for some that turkey have dropped,splice and grind them yourself.
Try The Footed Shaft. He is a great guy to deal with.
If you buy solids they are only $40/dz from Kustom King. If you order right now you get 10% off for ordering online.
I get my solids from Valley Traditional Archery. Last ones were under $35 - I am not sure what they are now. I am trying to get a source to try Gateway - I hear they are less than True Flight.
I make a single feather spiral flu-flu and it has been much harder the last two years to get feathers long enough to work well. I would like better than 8" of feather after trimming. I used to get a lot of feathers that gave me 9". I am wondering if the Turkey growers are not letting the birds grow them as big? I heard they often cut back the primaries so the birds can't fly.
I thought domestic whites got so fat so fast that they could not fly anyway.
I do have some long wild turkey, but I use them on 'primitives' and I like the brighter colors for flu-flu anyway.
has anyone used the a.m.s.brand of flu flu feathers.there regular feathers are great nice quill base to work with.

I have quite a few Tru-flight full-length feathers, mostly LW for $35/100 plus $3 sh.
Fletcher: regarding Gateways...they are less but so is there quality. I used to sell them as well as Tru-flight.
I think I may also have some shorter pieces that would work for flu-flus. I'll check and re-post.
