ive been playing around w/ the blitz alot here lately. i use mostly parabolic cut and some shield, 3rivers sells a chopper for traditional,pope and young and t-hawk that look pretty cool. any one use them ? what do you think ?
I have a banana chopper that is 5.5", I use a 4" feather and do a hybrid nana chop. It is kind of like the T-hawk
I use the shield cut, but I am thinking about trying some parabolic cut.
I always preferred a shield cut with my wood arrows.These days with carbons I really like parabolics,no real reason.
Parabolic for hunting, shield and nanner for looking at.
I like the look of shield cut.
I use the Shield cut.
I have a lot of shield cut and parabolic feathers on my arrows,But I got a burner and have done some cool shapes and the burner gives you endless possibilities with shapes.
I prefer parabolic since I think the parabolic shape is quieter in flight than the shield shape.
I go back and forth with parabolic and shield. I just seem to shoot better with shield, not sure why.
I use shied cut's mainly, but I also like a 4.5in nanna cut.
My personal favorite is the 5.5" Swift cut that 3Rivers sells as a chopper.

I definatly notice a quieter arrow with a parabolic cut feather, the sheilds look kewl tho. :archer2:
I use 3 4" shields on my 31" carbons, parabolic is quieter but the shields touch my nose better...PR
Love the looks of the shield cut,but parabolic's seem quieter to me. :dunno:
I wish I could settle one just one......
Nanners all the way for me. I think they look cool and don't have any noise issues.
I use Parabolic exclusively for every day shooting. Plan to use my Vario 5" "Indian" to fletch my hunting arrows with three wild turkey feathers.
I have used both, I just like parabolic's better. To me they are quiter in my opinion.
Shield for me -Since I utilize the feather to my nose as a soft anchor.
I have a Pope & Young chopper and use it often. After chopping, I cut the back end straight down and it works well for me. They are a little noisy, but I wouldn't use them for hunting
Shield cut for me.
