What's best for bowhunters, plastic vanes or feathers? This is a long-standing debate among archers.Bucks Bowhunting strongly prefer plastic vanes instead of feather fletching for all modern compound bows. Such bows are strongly centershot, allowing a wide margin of clearance between the bow handle and the arrow fletching. Vanes must be good quality to withstand UV light and resist damage in the field. Cheap vanes tear or deform easily, wilt in the heat, and change color in direct sunlight.If you simply cannot get broadheads to fly well with plastic vanes, feathers might be the only solution to your problem. But remember. Feathers tend to wilt in wet weather, wear excessively with regular shooting, and rustle loudly in a quiver. In most cases, plastic vanes enhance my deer hunting more than feathers.
