I always wondered- are there any advantages or disadvantages with fluflus as opposed to shield cut or parbolic cut feather fletching?
 
I had to sell my first recurve summer before last when I got into a bind with a car problem. I am "recurveless" but I intend to change that here soon. When I get a new bow I want to start making my own wood arrows.

Flu Flus are for short range use, like birds on the wing or shooting up into trees where arrow loss otherwise would be very likely.
