This week we're learning how to make natural barred wild turkey fletchings from turkey wing feathers. We'll learn two methods, the first of which uses a simple file and sand paper. After that I'll show how I use a table top belt sander to speed up the process.
Fletchings from wild turkeys are superior to those from domestic birds in a number of ways. They look great on traditional archery wood arrows, they stand up to wet weather better, and they're just more durable in the long run.
