Title: Getting Feathers Ready For Fletching?
Post by: Curtis Roberts on May 10, 2009, 01:18:00 PM
I have some turkey feathers and will be getting some goose feathers I want to use for fletching.  Is there anything I have to do to them before cutting, grinding and gluing them?  Thanks for the help.

Freeze them for a week to kill the little critters on them.  Bill
