Never shot them but I have felt them they seem pretty soft. I too am curious as to how they hold up if anyone knows.

If I remember for the ones I had, they seemed okay but I didnt have good luck attaching them to shafts, so I just passed them on to someone! Use feathers now, especially my own turkey wings!

They are very heavy compared to other fletching, and as mentioned, soft. Sims products do make bows quieter, but fletching is not an area of my setup that noise or lack of it is a primary factor. I greatly prefer Vanetec vanes, or feathers.

Very soft, dont set well with glue, and extremely heavy. Everything all the others have said so far. I wouldn't spend the money on them.

Duravanes are quiet and light. They can get slashed up though. A whole quiver full of mine did on a hunt in a spot filled with "shhhstickers".
