Aerial targets - Safety considerations for bowhunters

When engaging in aerial target practice, prioritize safety and ensure an optimal shooting environment. Before you begin shooting at aerial targets, clearly mark the area as a target range. Make sure you have an open and unobstructed space, ideally at least 300 yards, allowing for a clear line of sight to spot any intruders or domestic animals that may wander into the area.

Using flu-flu fletching is highly recommended for aerial target practice. These specially designed fletching are larger and provide increased drag, allowing arrows to fly slower and drop more quickly. This characteristic makes flu-flu arrows ideal for shooting at flying targets, as they are less likely to travel long distances if missed.
