One more ?

When fletching smaller feathers, helical? Straight?

Dont you need a bit of a helical for a single bevel BH?

Thank Joe! I get it now! I was confused on the tape…:?

I really want to get this EFOC thing right!

I will do a ton of ready and watching videos this weekend.

I will just use some 3″ shield cuts for now until my A&A’s come in! 😡

So guys, correct me if I am wrong, but if I get an arrow tuned good with 25-30% efoc and small feathers, my trajectory will be flatter out to 20 yards as well?

Joe/Mike, Thanks for info!

Joe, I just placed an order at the beginning of the week. Were my A&A feathers back ordered? You plan on getting new colors?

I like bright orange!

It the turbulator tape used to hold on the feathers?

Mike, Stumping and beer is the remedy I need! Hunting again this Saturday. Hopefully I get a crack at that 6 pointer I saw or the nice 9 that is running around up here. I would even take a doe. I am craving JERKY!!!:D

Ok, not to beat a dead horse one more time, but, I am going to try A&A feathers from Tuffhead on my new carbons.

Do I need to go 4 fletch? Will 3 be ok? I am tring to achieve the most EFOC I can and the flattest trajectory I can. I do not and will not shoot at game beyond 20 yards(at least this year). Do I need to use the special tape that comes with the feathers??

Right now my set up is 29″ arrows, with 350 out front. (225 head with 125 insert)Gives me 26.5% FOC acording to the Tuffhead calculator.

😕

I am a new hunter, per say.

I just try to spend as much time out in the woods/outdoors as much as possible.

But like Doc, I too live in the suburbs, so it is not everyday I get to the woods.

Doc, it was nice PMing you the other day. Good luck in TN. Hope it treats you well.

I almost got a PA 6 point on Saturday….

Keep in touch.

Cool video Smith!

I love your pics too!8)

You live in a beautiful part of the country!

I wish I could just “load up and be gone” and go stumping!

I need to find me a close place to stump.

Sounds like a ton of fum!

I loved Arizona. I was in Scottsdale some years ago and ventured into the mountains. Before my hunting/trad days.

Hope you guys have a blast and get some Jav’s.

They taste good? Like pork?

in reply to: feathers #8626

gotcha! I like 3 feathers better anyway. 😮

in reply to: Need Encouragement #8624

Thanks guys! I appretiate the advise.

I got into trad for a lot of reasons and fun was a big resson. I wish I could get out and stump, but I ive in the subburbs, and not many public areas that would allow it. PLus its hunting season.

I think a lot of my issues lately has been work and I am a person that has to be good at whatever I do. So this slump is tearing me up.

I am going to go downstairs, do some yoga and go out and have fun for an hour shoting.

Mike, I did enjoy all our stump shooting. It was very calming and fun. I wish I could make it down soon. Lots going on up here. Hope to get down there soon. My inlaws are getting new floors, I said I would go down and supervise the job. Maybe we can get together then.
