It depends on the jig clamp you have ? If it is a RH helical clamp ,that is what you need . Straight or LH will not work for RH feathers .

You sure about that Radar? I'm looking hear where it is telling about some Gateway feathers and it says right-wing feathers require a right or straight clamp.

Hunter, just order you some Gateway feathers from one of the common suppliers, (Cabelas, Archery Warehouse, etc). They seem to be the brand that most of them carry. Whether or not you buy barred feathers is just a matter of choice. They tend to make your arrow more traditional-looking.
I'd get right wing if I wanted to fletch in right helical, right offset, or straight. The right wing will work for any of those as long as you have the proper jig clamps.
Have fun!
