Title: 2” shield cut feathers
Post by: Ron Haines on February 16, 2022, 07:44:10 PM
Started playing around with these and I am impressed. Slapped in the 2 blade Magnus Stinger and sent some flying tonight from 40 yards to get a good look at arrow flight. Highly impressed. Even torqued the grip and stuff to see what would happen, straight flight.

Who else shoots them or played with them?

Been shooting the 2" gateway rayzr feathers for the past 3 seasons exclusively. Work great.

I've been shooting 2" shield cut in a 4x90 configuration for a long time.  Great arrow stability and they look neat  :archer:

Much noise using the shield cut?

I did not notice any. When I shot blazer vanes in my wheeled bow I can hear it, but not with the feathers.

I used them.  Fletched up a dozen arrows.  Flight was good.  Hunted with them with inch and a half wide heads.  Good flight and better trajectory at 20 and out. 
Just didn't like the looks.  Went to 3" for aesthetics only.
