where to get low profile "banana" cut feathers?

[tuffcity]

Anybody have a link/source for a non- "magnum" 4-5" banana cut feathers? Tried almost every other cut so it's time for something new on the sticks.

I'm not sure who sells them pre-cut, but 3 rivers has a feather chopper in the low-profile banana. It says it's 5 3/4" though...

If you really want to experiment with fletching alternatives take a look at a Young feather burner. I think it's kind of fun to play with. The sky's the limit for fletching styles with one of them.

I think you can also get them from. Lancaster Archery.

Yes burners are fun, just remember it can be smelly and you may want to account for having a place outside to work on them.

Thanks for the replies and suggestions. I think I'll try the pre-cut ones. I'm running a 755 gr bamboo arrow that's 34" LOA (tip to end of nock) so the 5 1/2" feathers probably aren't a bad thing.

That's a heavy arrow, what's your draw weight?
