Turkey feathers

I've used real turkey feathers before, I've saved them from the spring gobblers I've taken and my friends also save them for me.
After you have around 100 (most 7-8 primary wing feathers per wing) I use just left wing, you can ship them to Truflight and they will split and sand for a modest fee. Wild Turkey feathers are more stiff, and will make more noise if brush against clothing, than artificial feathers, or bleached tame turkeys, but danged, they do fly great.
Also killed a buck this year with a stone point a friend knapped for me, anlers wasn't much, but a big deer.. But I was more pleased with this stone point kill than if had been a 12 point with regular broadhead.
