What 4 in. Fletch do you prefer? 90X90 or 105x75

If I was going to use four, 4" fletch, I would use right wing Trueflight parabolic feathers with a 105x75 angle and each feather would have an eleven degree right twist.

I've used both 75x105 and 90x90 with great success with both. I prefer 75x105 but it's just preference and no advantage/disadvantage to either.

I like Gateway feathers 4" parabolic, 4x4 in 60 x 120 configuration.

Save a feather and use three. That's what I do. If your arrows are tuned to the bow, three feathers are plenty.

i use 3" 4 fletch 90x90 and it works great for me plus i get 3 feathers out of a full length feather.

Chris Surtees

I have used both 90x90 and 75x105 and could not tell any difference. With that said I decided on using 90x90 but that is just me.

As for fletching I prefer 4 x 4" low profile naner's.

Are you guys talking about the placement of the feather on the arrow or is this some number that is on the feathers you buy.  I never noticed anything on the feathers but have bought a different brand and had to adjust my jig to get them aligned well.

Jeremy

they're talking feather placement.

I like the 60/120 config personally b/c I don't have to swap out parts on my jig.  I didn't see a difference in flight between the three configs, so went with what's easiest for me.
