Black turkey feathers

[Bowlander]

I've just culled out my old Black x bronze turkey stag. Happy to post whole wings and/or tail feathers for fletching or whatever.

Yes please.
What would you like in return ?

 

[Bowlander]

They're yours. Do you want them left on the wings? Not looking for much in return, certainly less than £5 in value - what have you got spare?

Hi, great thanks. If you can take them off that would be good, but no worries if not.
I have archery bits ie field points, pre cut feathers, nocks, buffalo horn block for self nocks. And another more bits if I look. Let me know if that is any good.

 

[Bowlander]

I'll pull the feathers off, just pm me your address and I'll get them in the post asap.

My little lad is wanting to start archery so a few bits you have spare would be great.

Cheers,


Rob

Outstanding. Pm me your address and I will sort some bits out for him.

Just a note from the sidelines, exchanges like this make this forum great!

Do you guys use or damage the actual quill when you use these feathers ?

 

[Cromm]

Hi Robbi,
When making fletchings you cut into the quill to half the feathers so you can use the correct side of the feather, you don't use the pen part of the quill.
Cheers

I've taken the bare quill tips off the feathers to fit the feathers into the envelope. If anyone has any use for them I'd be happy to post.

Cheers, will let you know when they turn up.
