I don't know why I did this but I did; when I purchased my new doz. arrows Easton Axis n-fused I bought them with black and red vanes. After getting them home and using them I immediately realized what a poor color choice that was for visibility and I am debating on shaving all of them off for a better color choice. I am shooting an unbelieveably expensive broadhead (that I love) and I am really worried about finding the arrow. Three of the arrows already need new vanes on them but I cannot decide if it is worth it to rip off the remainder. Black and red-what the hell.
I'd strip 'em... visibility is so important to me in the deer woods... I go so far as to cap and crest my arrows for that reason. It's literally amazing how much the woods change once you climb out of your treestand and hit the dirt when it comes to finding your arrows after you've shot them.
Until I needed to replace most of the vanes because they were tore up I'd just keep shooting them. After that i would refletch how I wanted them.

I have red and black on mine and have been thinking the same thing. I am just going to use them for target for now on and get new ones before the season starts.
I have purple/black and red/black also on my practice arrows because I like the way they look. My hunting arrows have orange vanes and flourescent green wraps.
