I tried to sell or trade off some 4" parabolic feathers ( I have a lot of `em ) that I used for my compound when I had it. For some reason or another no one wanted `em. So i`m wandering if anyone shoots these off of their trad bows ? Heck, if I can`t get rid of `em I might as well use `em if they`ll work.   :biglaugh:

Yep. A lot of us do. I prefer a 4x4" arrangement, but do have some arrows fletched 3x4".

sure, you've got the makings of some fine steerage in a nice 4" feather 4-fletch, either 90x90 or 105x75.  i've used 4" nanner 4-fletch arrows to kill a few hogs, works just fine, lotsa steerage, so go fletch them bad boys up!

My favorite is 4"x4. Without a doubt.

I use em, three or four fletch.  I also like to mount them just a bit forward of the normal back end location on the arrow so they don't touch my nose on anchor, till I am fully back.

Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

4x4 here too. Mostly shield-cut, but parabolic or nanners work just fine too.

3- 4" shield cut. Used to only use 5" because I thought I needed em for broadheads, but ya dont

That is what I shoot sometime 4x4 sometime 3-4" shield cut.

Wait, people use silicone fletching for trad bows? I didn't really think it was possible since it would make the arrow kick out and deflect from bouncing off the shelf.

I only use feathers. I wish they didn't cost so much more than the silicone.

I shoot 3 x 4'' helical. I'm very specific in what I shoot since I've been using a traditional bow for about a month, aka, I shoot whatever is in the box.  :)

3-4" shield or parabolic, which ever I get the best deal on.

3 x 4" shield cut for me.

With properly tuned and designed shaft, my 1 1/2" three blades are consistenly on the mark.

My son shoots 4 x 4" parobilics on his rig. They fly great.
