Use trukey feathers and you wont have the problem. If you use chicken feathers, just spray them with silicone spray. Problem solved. When I use chicken feathers, I spray them with silicon because dew can colapse them as well a rain.
Exactly some people dont know what type of feathers are being put on there arrows.
And also high poundage bows shouldnt use feathers anyway, the fletchings collapse on release and there is no stabilization. for a good 10 yards. Trust me try to find some high speed footage of feathers. they collapse and you get sort of an archers paradox in a way.
What??? I've never heard of that before.
I doubt that!
Neither have I, Schultzy, especially since I shot feathers last year out of my 70# Drenalin. They steered broadheads better than the blazers I'm using now. Another thing.... on the wet feathers issue... I tested that theory last year with the following results:
1. Wet feathers still steer a broadhead just fine.
2.Wetfeathers don't slow the arrow down much at all if any. (As soon as all of that stored energy hits the arrow, the water that is in the feather is left behind in a cloud of mist.)
