    Fletching your arrows is important, without feathers, either plastic or genuine, your arrows won't be stable in mid-air.

    Those feathers are from a turkey originally, but goose is also just as good, and authentically medieval too.

    If feathers like that aren't available then plastic flexi ones are so-so. An even more cheapo way is to use duct tape or gaffer tape.

    Nice one, trying to dial in my sling/bow.

    Save me a fortune on lost or broken arrows.

    This is what the arrow fletches look like when woven-about with linen thread.
