Real or imitation feathers (and length)?
 

I' m shooting 27" arrows with a 30" draw from a 70# RH Mathews. I have never used carbon arrows or feathers before. I' m thinking of using Gold Tips with super nocks and 3x4" Gateway feathers (real) on a left helical. Suggestions please!

I just used this message on the tech. forum but wish to repeat becuase this was a really good artical. peterson' s bowhunting march 2003 it had everything about feathers and vanes....www.bowhuntingmag.com

Right wing feathers are a little more popular because they spin the arrow clockwise which would tend to tighten your broadhead on impact. They are usually easier to find than left-wing. Not a thing wrong with the lefties, but just thought I would mention it. Sounds like a good setup and those GT' s are great shafts. Good luck.

Sound like a good choice to me

Your set-up sounds perfect to me!

Its all good except the Gateway part.
True flight feathers are a much higher quality product.

I shoot the same arrow combo. I use 4" RW Trueflight feathers and also use real wild turkey feathers. You will need the GoldTip 7595 size at least. That set up will rock with your draw length !
