Left Wing or Right wing

Hey guys, I pretty new to this site. I was wandering, can I use a left wing feather in a fletcher with right helical?

No, not really. Use left wing clamp for left wing feather. Or you can use a straight clamp and offset it to the left.

Ya can put it in the clamp but nothing is gonna work right.. (no pun there)

Get a left wing clamp and be done with it... From one Forestry/wildlife guy to another

There are a few things that become a pain if you try this. One is it is really hard to get the base to lay flat on the arrow. The other is that the natural bend in the feather is twisted the wrong way persay and seems to make the feathers come a part faster than they normally would.

I have tried using some and all you guys are right. It ain't working. Anybody want 85 left wing shield cut 5" white fletches.

I would love them. We could use them to send to the troops in Afghanistan
