Feathers Archery
Archery arrows question?
I'm looking online for the easton genesis arrows 1820. i don't know the difference between arrows with feathers and arrows with vanes. can anyone tell me the difference please?? or what they are
(I'm trying to buy them online)
Vanes are cheaper(for the most part) and easier to work with than feathers. However the vanes are stiffer and if you have contact between the fletching and your bow (due to poor tuning), the feather will be more forgiving.
Now this part is nitpicking, but vanes are also heavier than feathers. There's a measure in archery called FOC. FOC is a percentage difference between the center of gravity of the arrow and the actual center of the arrow. The higher the FOC, the more forgiving the arrow is. Think about it this way, an arrow unlike a bullet is not a simple point projectile, even when pointed towards the target, a lot can go wrong to the back end of it to make it go off course. The higher the FOC, the more the weight of the arrow shifts towards the point, making it act more like a simple point projectile. Vanes, being heavy, lowers the FOC of arrows. But the difference in FOC won't be apparent until you're shooting long distances.
1820's huh? That'll be some super tough arrows.
