RW Saubuckel Barred – Die-cut fletching made from real turkey feathers

The RW Saubuckel Barred fletching combines the classic "Saubuckel" (hogback) shape with the natural barred feather pattern. The characteristic stripes are created by the structure of the turkey feather and give the arrows a particularly traditional look.

Made from real turkey feathers and die-cut by hand at Bodnik Archery, these feathers feature consistent shapes with clean contours – ideal for reliable arrow building in traditional archery.

Natural feathers for reliable arrow stabilization

Natural feathers have been proven in traditional archery for decades. They stabilize the arrow quickly and flex when they brush against the bow shelf during release.

The RW Saubuckel Barred feathers provide:

• reliable arrow stabilization
• smooth flight behavior
• forgiving performance during release
• proven performance in training and on the 3D course

Hand-cut at Bodnik Archery

All feathers are die-cut by hand at Bodnik Archery.

This ensures:

• consistent feather shapes
• clean cut edges
• consistently high quality for arrow building

This allows the feathers to be glued cleanly and processed reliably.

Classic Saubuckel shape

The Saubuckel shape is one of the most traditional feather profiles in archery. Due to its somewhat higher contour, it stabilizes the arrow particularly effectively and is excellently suited for classic arrow setups.

It is ideal for:

• traditional bows
• 3D courses
• training
• tournaments

Two lengths for classic arrow setups

The RW Saubuckel Barred feathers are available in the following sizes:

• 4 inch – classic length for many traditional arrows
• 5 inch – maximum stabilization for heavy points or traditional setups

Natural Barred feather pattern

The barred look is created by the natural structure of the turkey feather. The typical stripes give the feathers a particularly natural and classic appearance.

Since this is a natural material, each feather may show slight differences in structure and pattern – which is exactly what gives them their individual character.

15 color variants

The RW Saubuckel Barred feathers are available in 15 different color variants. This allows arrows to be customized both functionally and visually.
