Default Question about vanes

I am curious what the advantages and disadvantages to feather vanes versus plastic vanes. I shoot plastics since they seem more durable and carry a bit more momentum, but probably arent as fast as feathers.

So what is the big differences? What do you shoot?

Post some pics of your arrows, I like checkin out the different color schemes and all

i shoot feathers because there lighter, and they don't tear up as much when target shooting
