Waterproofing feathers???
I've shot vanes for many years and just recently
had 4" feathers put on my ACC's...I can't believe how
well my arrows fly with broadheads now. One of the
things that kept me shooting vanes so long was the
durability and 'no worry' when it rained. With our
weather here in Iowa I'm a little concerned on how
they will hold up.
What would be the best product to use for water-
proofing my feathers/fletchings? Where can I buy
it?
Thanks for any help.

I use a combination of silicon spray, "camp dry" I believe is the brand name. spary several light coats on my feathers, and then the ones that go in my quiver also get coated with the fletch dri powder. This system has worked great for me, even in a down pour.
