good question go to where ever you shop for your arrrows and they should have a chart that tell u what your arrow weight should be . yes it does your less accurate and you are not getting all of the speed you can out of it and it falls faster.
fletching
A Fletcher typically makes arrows in a workshop or a dedicated space where they can craft and assemble archery equipment. This area would be equipped with tools for shaping wood, feathers, and fletching materials, allowing for precise construction of arrow shafts, nocks, and fletching. Additionally, a Fletcher might work outdoors for certain tasks, such as testing arrows for flight accuracy and performance.
Shaft: oak, ash and yew. Feathers for the fletching, iron for the broadhead.
It depends what you plan on making. Making bows isdefinitely faster than making arrows. But arrows are worth more. It is really up to you.
Fletching an arrow stabilizes it during flight and improves accuracy
i think its Fletching, though that could just be the part of adding feathers to stabilise the arrow, like in darts... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fletching There is not really a specific term for creating arrows. Arrow building is the most specific I have heard. Fletching as a noun means the section of the arrow that stabilizes it. Fletching as a verb it the act of putting either feathers or vanes on the arrow.
Arrows in archery are measured for accuracy and precision by factors such as weight, straightness, spine consistency, and fletching quality. These measurements help ensure that arrows fly straight and hit the target consistently.
Yes, the feathers on a dart are commonly referred to as "fletching." Fletching stabilizes the dart's flight and can be made from various materials, including feathers or plastic. The arrangement and shape of the fletching can influence the dart's accuracy and performance.
Anasazi arrows were typically made from slender wooden shafts, often crafted from local materials such as reeds or lightweight woods. The arrowheads were commonly made of stone, like flint or obsidian, and were shaped into sharp points for effective hunting. Some arrows featured fletching made from feathers, which helped stabilize flight. The design and materials reflected their resourcefulness and adaptation to the environment.
You use a knife a a regular log and fletch arrow shafts... then you add feathers to them to make the feathered arrows..... then you get arrow heads from the ge or you can smith them yourself from bronze...iron....steel.mithrill.etc......then u use the arrow heads on the feathered arrows and u have arrows.... you need fletching for this...
its called a fletching and the one coloured a different colour is called the odd fletching you are always supposed to shoot with the odd fletching out
Arrows are long thin pointed projectiles that are shot out of bows. The feathers on an arrow are called fletching's and traditionally came from a goose or turkey.
