Hey Christine , do you feather tape or glue your feathers ?
I'm not Christine, but I'll give my 2 cents anyway. I use the tape, and IMHO for feathers, that's the only way to go. It's quick and is much easier to refletch, especially if your arrows are dipped. Just rub the glue off and refletch. I also feel like it holds better than glue, for feathers. I think the glue soaks into the base of the feather, and doesn't adhere as well.
I agree with this 100% I have pulled arrows through my targets and had the feathers still on afterwards. Plus, one otherbenefit is, as soon as you put them on with tape, they are ready to shoot. No waiting for glue to dry.
