Default Vanes

Hey i am shooting the Gold Tip XT Hunter's 7595 stock. I was wondering if people would suggest getting new vanes for these arrows. I just want to make the XT's the best they can be, any suggestions? (I shoot Muzzy MX-3's 100 gr)

Look into some Blazer vanes. The Blazers take pretty good control of the arrow and a very durable! Just a thought!

I shoot this same arrow, and I am going to be getting new arrows sometime this summer. I am going to be putting the blazers on my XT's.

Blazers, QS Speed Hunters, or 4" Feathers. They will all work nicely.

My choice is hands down Feathers!!

What's on them now? I think they have an option for vanetec vanes, which I have found to work very nice and are pretty tough to wear out.
If you have the vanetecs on there already, I'd just leave em at that.
