ABSTRACT:
An arrow includes a plurality of fletchings of sheet-like, substantially planar composition that, when engaged to the cylindrical arrow shaft, acquire aerodynamic curvatures. Each fletching includes a symmetrical arcuate edged vane. The ends of the arcuate edge terminate at a strip-like base that is coated with a double-sided adhesive for fixing the fletching to the arrow shaft. The fletchings are spaced regularly about the shaft and mounted tangential to its periphery to provide a stiff design that allows the flight of the arrow to take place substantially unimpeded by flutter accumulation.
