I shoot right wing because that's how the fletcher I bought is set up.  What is frustrating though is that flu flu's are only sold in left wing.  I can't find any right wing ones.

Grey- You made a fine point there and I didn't realize this until you said it, but I have a hard time seeing the entire quill on my feather when fletching them left wing. I knew that something wasn't quite right and I just didn't like it until you put your finger on it. That's exactly why I don't like fletching left wing, because I can't see what I'm doing. Although, they seem to turn out fine....I don't like the fact of having to just hope I got them on there right.

I shoot left-handed and I use right wing mostly because I like to feel the feather touch my nose at full draw.
May your next adventure lighten your heart, test your spirit, and nourish your soul.

Been shooting RW so long it's all I know and that's what my Bitz is set-up for.Thought of trying LW also so I can use the other wing feathers off my turkeys.

LW/LH.  Seems to me there is no difference other than I can usually find LW feathers in more colors.

RW because I always have and that is the clamp I have.

In the beginning of the year it must have been the  broken wing,cause I couldn't hit crap.Now i am back on and it's the right wing for sure.   :thumbsup:    :laughing:

I shoot rt wing because i got a good deal on a rt wing fletching jig at a sports show years ago when i decided to start making my own arrows. Im rt handed and have no problems with arroiw flight. Have trouble hitting things sometimes but my arrows fly good!!

BOWMARKS

I shoot left wing , I was a right handed bow shooter for a few years the right wing feathers cut into my left hand so I changed to left wing this took care of this problem.Had to change to left handed bows and still had to shoot left wing for the same reason.

I have both, wasn't an option - I'm a right handed shooter and shoot cock feather in, have always shot RW but am changing to LW which will allows a tad more clearance to the outside of my shelf - I spent alot of time watching videos and seeing what the " well known shooters" do and right handed shooters that I (look for advice from) shoot LW feathers. The new rule seems to be it doesn't matter but I think it might.

Jeremy - RW flu flu's are just cut from full length RW feathers - you can do that (or were you just joking around)

Friend

Either one shoots fine. I shoot left wing due to  the right wing feathers cut into my left hand. Also, since one of my anchors is locating the cock feather to the tip of my nose, left wing works better for me.
