Young feather burner,,,who's tried one?

[myshootinstinks]

And what do you think, good, bad, so-so?

[todd smith]

I've used them for years.  Expensive but you can make as many wires as you care to make for as many shapes as you care to have.  One burner will last many lifetimes.  Well, it should...            

I like them, but then I like the smell of burning feathers too...              todd

I've got one that I really "liked", untill it quit workin' after about 6 months.  

[Killdeer]

I have had many years of trouble-free service from mine.

I've had the same one for over 20 years,burned thousands of feathers ,still works great.I find my fletch far superior to Pre-cut.wouldn't be without it.

[Andy Cooper]

I don't like the smell...prefer choppers

[Wapiti Chaser]

Love mine. Sold all of my choppers off. Don't burn feathers in the house though  

[Andy Cooper]

You are a wise man!

[Charlie Lamb]

Mine has been working without a hitch for the last 25 years and I got it used. I wouldn't doubt if it was 40 years old. I don't expect to have to replace it in my lifetime.

Hey Todd! I'm with you. I love the smell of burning feathers in the morning. Smells like.... archery.  

[luv2bowhunt]

Same here, bought mine used and I bet it is 40 years old. Works like new and makes beautiful perfectly matched feathers. I sold off all of my choppers after picking up one...

...but like was said before, don't burn them in the house  :D

[joekeith]

So what's the deal?    Do I have the only junker one here?  

[TOEJAMMER]

Been sing them for over 50 years and still have the first one,

[BigStriper]

I just got a used one recently but haven't used it yet,

They are awesome ,ive used one for over 30 years.I may add its the same one in 30 years .

[gregk]

I got a used one at Compton this year and really like it. My chopper will probably never get used again....

[Andy Cooper]

One can certainly create their own unique fletching profile using the burners. To me, archery smells like cedar!  :D

[JRY309]

Been using mine for over 15 years,still works great.I bought a chopper and did about 36 feathers,wasn't happy with the results and got rid of it.Bought my Youngs feather burner and have been happy ever since.

[Andy Cooper]

How do you keep from discoloring your crown with the wire?

[anchorman]

I've used both choppers and the burner prefer the burner. Had it for 12 years and not a bit of problem from it.....

[Rufus]

My dear wife made a direct and very positive point that I will only burn feathers in the barn. At no time will I do so in the house again. But, I do like my burner!!!! I've had it forever and I'm gettin' to be old as dirt.    :D
