Unlike regular fletchings, you won’t need a template to cut them perfectly, or a feather burner or sander. While flu-flu arrows are expensive to buy pre-fletched, they’re extremely easy and cheap to make yourself.
Flu-flu arrows are a great way to shoot at aerial targets, and are perfect for hunting rabbits and birds. This causes the arrows to only travel a short distance and it can usually be found sticking straight into the ground with the fletching waving in the air above the grass. If you are unaware, flu-flu arrows are arrows specifically designed for large feather fletchings that create drag when the arrow is released. But one of my favorite things to make are spiral-wrap turkey wing flu-flu arrows. I keep them mainly for artwork and decoration.
Oftentimes, hunters discard the wings, but there are actually many uses for the feathers. One of the most beautiful and useful parts of a wild turkey are its wing feathers.
