Actually, 4 x 4 in Fletch wouldr cover the same surface area as 3 x 5 in Fletch. If using Sheild Cut feathers for both, the 4 x 4 would likely be slower, but would still come out of paradox and stablize quicker. However, 4 x 4 Shield cut may also be noticeably nosier. I use 4 x 4 Parabolic and get good speed, quietness and excellent arrow flight.
