Feather Type Question

[Shakes.602]

Now I am sure the Majority of y'all use Turkey feathers in  ALL  of their Fashions and Styles. I am going to buy some Goose Feathers from a Memebr of this Fine Establishment, and was just Curious: Have any of you noticed any Markedly Difference in Performance between the 2 Types??   :confused:  
 I am gonna guess the Goose are a bit more Weatherproof? Just because they come from Waterfoul. Is this a safe guess? The Goose, Natural Feathers are Very Pretty without any Dye Jobs!    
  Next is: What is the "Best Cut", or Most Popular Cut? I am leaning toward the "Traditional Cut" or the ""Pope & Young" Shape". Any and All Info will be Greatly Appreciated! Thank you Folks!!

When I use goose feathers it is a 5 1/2 inch shield cut.Always have a couple of huntin arrows with honker feathers for foul weather huntin.Goose feathers do not seem to be as durable as turkey for me

You're right about the goose feathers being more waterproof. Personally I like a 5 inch shield cut.

I dont personally like the Pope and Young cut. Makes noise in flight. I prefer shield cut. Just my thoughts.  term

Traditional cut are cool looking, but are really really loud. I've been liking a 4" four fletch low pro banana or a 5" (and a bit) three fletch regular banana. Quiet with great stability.

I have some goose feathers I'm going to try on some arrows. I'll be interested to hear your experience.
