@Janfodne You fletch them as you would any other arrow, you just use the full, uncut feather. You can use 3,4 or 6 fletch, or some will spiral warp the feather. I buy full length uncut feathers and I can usually get two fletchings from a single full length feather.
@Gleebryan Two of the top distributors of traditional archery equipment are 3RiversArchery and KustomKingArchery. Pot a dot com after those names and you'll get the websites. Search for Flu Flu. They run about $40 1/2 dozen.
@Justlivelife101 If you use 4 fletch, just glue them on like the letter X. If you use 3 fletch, glue on the first fletch 90 degrees to the string and the other two 120 degrees apart..
I like them , i have some carbon express six feather flu flu's ,they make a sixxling sound in flight and are great fun . Be safe and good hunting ,from Mike in Texas .
Never been around someone shooting Flu-flus they do sound sweet . Reminds me of the westerns with the arrows whizzing by and hitting the tree net to the cowboy.
@wilsbow The spirial fletch are what we have at the club for club shoots. I have not shot them myself but they look really easy to make. Fasten one end, spiral warp and fasten the other end.
I am not even into archery and I love watching these videos. More sound must also mean more drag ... no? It looked to me like the quite arrows flew at a more level trajectory. Excellent production again!
@EconoChallenge Yep, more drag. They are meant for short range aerial, bird and tree critters. Don't have to chase them so far if you miss :) Thanks for watching.
@EconoChallenge I am with out a doubt buying one as soon as spring hits. I just love this stuff...thanks to Jims great archery vids :o) Very relaxing sport since I'm too old for football...hehe!
Greetings my dear friend! Nice arrows and i love that sound. It is like movie effects. Have you ever been practising aerial targets ? Happy New Year !
@Trophybow1 Aerials would be fun for sure. We have a thrower at the club but I have yet to use it. Seems like I am either alone or no one else is interested in dragging out the thrower (it’s pretty big and on a cart).
@Woodenarrows It is fun and you definitely have to try someday. I hope you find some friend to come and throw the disks ( it is easier than use the machine)
Wow, thats neato, you're pretty good with that bow; and the sound those fu fu's make. I would definately take out the camera. LOL. Hmmm... REI has a small tubular type emergency whistle they sell for $3... me thinks you have a cherrybomb attaching it to middle of arrow. 8o0.. ohhhhhh noooo.

@rednck700 I don't but yes you can small game hunt with Flu Flu arrows. They are great for squirrel, rabbit and bird, any short range shots.

is there a certain way to fletch them or do you just glue them on where you think is right?

Your Ful Flus are great !!
Good looking, nice sound and quite fast.
I think I have to make my own and give it a try.
Did you ever try a Flu Flu with one, full length feather wrapped around the shaft ?
I wonder how this would sound ?
Happy new year to you, Jim. : )

Nice video. Your flu-flus are great. I intend to make some with 6 feathers - what do you think about it - will they work well?
Happy New Year! :)

@kaziklu79 6 fletch will work fine, they will have a shorter range. May be just what you want sometimes.
