Default RE: What do you shot feathers or vanes and why?

Both, I live and hunt where it rains a lot too, but I believe I will always hunt with feathers. I have quit giving ultamatums in archery, as I change equipment about as much as I change underwear ( a lot!, really). I shoot 4" feathers with nice big 125 grain Magnus Stingers, and they fly beautifully. I shoot feathers for indoors, as they really stabilize an arrow well, and, although some will argue, they take a beating and keep flying well. I have just set up some 3D arrows with Flex Fletch 175's (1.75") and I will be testing them this weekend. Just want to see how they will handle, and I wanted smaller profile for some longer outdoor games, maybe a field event or two. I like both for many different reasons.

Feathers do look better too!!!
