Title: feathers
Post by: Craig on March 23, 2013, 09:34:00 PM
I just bought some feathers from Sagittarius Archery Supplies. 100 white 4" feathers They are really nice feathers. I would always buy True Flight, but I can't tell the difference and half the price for 100 feathers. I live in South Eastern Pa and they are in California. I called and had them in 3 days. I know where I will be getting my feathers from now on.

That is a good price! I may have to get some just cause.

I get quite a few feathers from them.
On another thread that mentioned them a member slammed their quality without ever seeing their feathers. He said if they were that cheap they had to be crap.
Personally, they work fine on every arrow I've put them on.

Red feather is a True Flight, White feather is a Sagittarius archery feather. The quill is a hair thicker and higher near the back, but not much.

I just ordered some feathers from them a few days ago. I was curious how much bigger the profile was.

Thanks for the pic Craig!

Nice price.  Anyone find a pic of the colors?  What was shipping cost on a small order of feathers say 100-200? Think I will try them.

The only colors that are really different from others is the red and the blue.
Their red is in the direction of blood red and the blue is in the direction of royal blue. Both are very attractive.
If you order yellow be sure to specify plain yellow or fluorescent yellow.

Not a sponsor, but I guess that is how they can keep cost down. The more they spend in advertising the higher the cost. I guess with us being Contributors helps out the small buisness trying to make a living.
