Pheasant is the feather of choice in Korean traditional archery, yes. I was going to post earlier how nice the pheasant fletchings are and now you have posted some more. Very nice indeed.

Stiven; Other people are selling pheasant in the USA. Each animal may have a different law but generally if it is not rare in the wild and if it is raised on a farm then it is usually legal to sell these.

For you it is better to ask an import agent. If someone here receives the wrong feathers, there could be a $5000 fine on them, or more.

Yes, Koreans only use Ring neck pheasant wing fletches.

Peacock and peahen have nice wing feathers. There are many other pheasants with good feathers.

Also look into heritage turkey feathers. You will be surprised.
