to fletch an arrow is pretty easy as long as you have the correct tools, the main thing you need is a fletching jig, a good make is Cartel, the are around £25 and move an arrow to the correct position for the VANES or Fletches ( either feather or plastic) then you attach the vanes with glue and the fletching tool holds them in the correct position with magnets until the glue sets.

What are a feather on a arrow called?

There are usually 3 feathers or fletchings on an arrow. As few as 2 or as many as 4 can be used, but 3 is normal for modern arrows. The 3 feathers are positioned equally at 120 degrees from each other. The different coloured feather is traditionally called the "cock feather" but in modern times the alternative name "index feather" can be used, depending on the audience. At the back end of an arrow, there is a "nock" which can be a plastic "U" or just a groove in the back of the arrow which fits around the string of the bow to hold the arrow onto the string. The index vane is attached to the arrow at right angles to this nock, so when the arrow is on the bow, the index feather is pointing away from the bow. The other two feathers will be able to pass the bow without obstruction.

Where should you point cock feather when you nock an arrow with the bow parallel to the ground?

The cock feather should be pointing to the right. The arrowhead should be pointing downward. Be sure when you nock your arrows to never point the bow and arrow at any person. Keeping the arrow pointed away from people will minimize the risk of unintentional injury.
