Go with feathers. Without shooting accuracy there is nothing. Feather fletched arrows are without a doubt more accurate than vanes. They are also a bit faster out of the bow, although this decreases downrange due to drag. I want the most forgiving setup avasilable when I'm in the field, so feathers are my choice.
People exaggerate the noise factor associated with feathers.
I don't believe in the beneits of silencing bowstrings or using quieter vanes. If a deer is alert, ready to bolt, a queit arrow is still very loud to the deer and its reaction to avid just as quick and responsive. The only way quieting can benefit the hunter is in case of a clean miss, perhaps less noise will lead to a second shot. But, these scenarios are, as you know, few and far between. Ultimately, it should depend on your set-up.
