Default Feather Shooter

Just wondering how many people still shoot feathers?
I was shooting Blazers for a few years.. had good luck w/ them w/ my old set up. Just switched back to feathers this year w/ my new setup... was getting much better tuning w/ feathers instead.

Honestly I shoot both. I shoot quick spins 2" and 4" feathers. They group the same for me.

I went back to feathers this year. With my particular bow, they are more forgiving for clearance. They just fly better. Dread the rain however.

Ive been shooting them for 2 years now and overall i like them much better than plastic. Ive never had a problem shooting them in the rain either, they fly the same wet or dry.

I've been shooting feathers for over 4 decades. I picked up a new bow this year with a drop away rest - feathers shoot fine out of it.
