Was idly looking for some new feathers for my next batch of wooden arrows and came across a seller on AliExpress that has a really interesting range for pretty decent prices, like 50x 4" feathers for a tenner or 50 3" for £7, and this brand (Ontfihs) has some interesting designs you cant easily get here
There are reviews on AliExpress, but you can't tell if the folks writing them know what they are looking at - historically I have only used Bearpaw feathers from Merlin or Gateway from KG, both without issue. FWIW I use tape not glue
Is there somewhere else worth a look? Or even, is the view that it is better to stick to the main brands because feathers are only pennies each anyhow?
