Gray Goose Feathers?

[Jerry Gowins]

Anybody know of a good source for gray goose feathers?  I'm making some medieval arrows and wood like to use goose for the fletching.

Thanks!

Jerry, Goose hunters are the only source I know of. Perhaps Charlie Jefferson(stringstretcher) has some he could part with. He has been collecting turkey and I think goose feathers and chopping them to order. Send Charlie a PM.

Parks when the birds are molting is also a good source

ask for the tail feathers too, read that article in the last issue of primative archery and love the look of the south western fletch. nice thing is i finally got a use for all those sky rats that we shoot. will have a bunch of them this year for fletching thats for sure. i am thinking of shooting them with the bow too

I get my from all my Goose hunting friends.  One season gave me about 50 yrs worth of fletching.
