At just 2.76 grains per feather, natural feathers are significantly lighter than plastic vanes, which translates to flatter trajectories, improved arrow speed, and fletching that tunes more readily to your bow setup. The shield cut profile offers slightly more surface area than a parabolic cut, giving your arrows that extra touch of in-flight stability without sacrificing speed, making these feathers a solid choice for both hunting and target shooting applications. Whether you're shooting timber, carbon, aluminium, or fibreglass shafts, these feathers are compatible with all shaft materials and are particularly well suited to medium diameter shafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGateway 4 Inch Shield Cut Feathers - Right Wing Key Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength and Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.0 inch (10.16 cm) shield cut profile, which provides slightly more surface area than a parabolic cut for increased arrow stability in flight without significant drag penalty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15.5 mm vane height, a practical size well suited to medium diameter arrow shafts across a wide range of bow styles and draw weights.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.76 grains per feather, considerably lighter than most plastic vanes, which helps maintain arrow speed and enables flatter trajectories downrange.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRight Wing (Clockwise Rotation):\u003c\/strong\u003e Right wing feathers are cut from the right wing of the bird and produce clockwise arrow rotation in flight, which is the most common orientation for right-handed shooters.
